It need to be 100mm from the lowest point of your car. (exhaust?) Mine is just legal

I just wouldn't risk it. It's just another thing for cops to get p****d off at, I once had a cop compliment me on the ride height, while informing me he could defect me for exhaust, rims, tint... you get the idea

i have dobison super lows all round and boge short shocks hardly scrapes over bumps so its pretty practical but...
i would recommend getting ultra lows it would look a s**t load better if i could go back i would have gotten ultralows
