lows will definatly be legal.

superlows can be hit and miss.

some may be 10mm above legal, same may be right on it, some might be 10mm under.

If you fit superlows you must use shortened shocks which is where it gets expensive, if shortened shocks arent used the car will run un the bump stops causing a very hard bouncy ride which is also unroadworthy. Lows as stated are the equivilant to XR height and can use the standard shocks.
