Ride: EF- Wagon

Location: Toowoomba
QLD, Australia

Car is booked in for 18th Feb to get the Superlows installed as well as Getting the rear leaf springs reset to the same height.

The wagon should sit just above this height with 16's and will look better when i sort outsome 18's or 19's

The above pic isnt really big enuf- below is my ideal ride height once its lowered.

I have Super Lows in the front of my wagon, and I am very happy with the looks and performance.

The back of mine sits level with a full tank of LPG and a half a tank of Petrol.

Cheers

yeah i had a look at your front end pics and i think it will look good at that height when i put bigger rims on it. I have 16" ROH'S on it atm but looking for 18-19" rims to give the lower look on it!

I am currently in the situation of tring to work out how low to go on my wagon. One thing to consider is if your gonna fit a kit, is the car still going to have enough clearance especially on thwe front bar? I am waiting to have the kit done and 20's on before settling on the exact height

I have to agree on the practicality side of things being important.

It is no good having it looking great if the first driveway you have to go up rips your bar off.

When my BA bar is on the front of my EB I can get most places I normally drive. There area a couple of carparks that I won't even try due to the size of the speed mountains.

But with the BA bar on, I can't get down my own drive way frontwards. I have to reverse down LOL.

Cheers
BenJ

dropped the car off this morning to have the superlows put into the front and then i will have the rear reset in the coming weeks to suit the height of the front. I have found these 18's but havnt seen them on a white car before- i am hoping they will suit it well.

If everthings goes as planned then i will be buying these after i have the radiator replaced.

Let me know your thoughts on the rims.They are a pre au fitmet so no spacers :)

Nice rims, they look hot on a black e-series, and i reckon would look good against the white wagon as well.

Heres a chop with a couple other ideas..... colour code the bumper strips & number plate surround for a more modern look

I can get some from the goldie for $800 without rims. Plus theyre local as the ones on ebay are in victoria only $120 postage but i would prefer to buy rims local incase of problems.
