Default lowering

I Just had a look on the king springs website at some lower springs. It says that the SL's are the same height as the XR's. Is this right? Am looking at bringing the car down a little bit more in the front and putting SSL's in the rear

I've just ordered new King springs for my ute and the lows where stated to be 365mm from centre of wheel to peak of the wheel arch, super lows are 355 measured the same. In my ute the superlows leafs will drop the ИИИИ from where it sits now 110mm, mind you i can park next to an RTV and my ИИИИ is only an inch lower than the RTV?!!
Now I was also told that they were 30-35 below standard XR height (superlows that is).
Hope that gives you some indication of heights.

I just put SLs in mine 2 weeks ago, and dropped 15mm front, and 25mm rear - that's from XR height (AU1).
