Hi All, I bought a set of new lowered King Springs late last year for my LC. The product codes are: KHFL-08, & KHRL-09. As soon as the funds become available, I will probably gets some Koni reds to go with the Kings, and install the lot on my car. Anyway, my question is, can someone tell me if any of the guards need to be 'adjusted' to suit the lowered King springs?

I will appreciate any light people can shed on this question. Cheers.

Hi, what rims and tyres are you running? I used these springs in my LC coupe with 13 x 6 Sprintmasters and 205 rear and 185 front tyres with no issues,

I think you'll be OK, I'll just double check that my front guards aren't rolled at all, I don't think they are,

Thanks Debkah, I am more worried about the front guards with 205's. Have you ever had 205's on the front with the lowered King Springs? Can anyone else help?

i have but the springs were pedders. i think "super lows". The front was dumped! Had to cut the lower bump stops in half so i could have some travel.
Looked tuff as though! Sprintmasters 205/60, the guards had to be lipped.

Hi , No never had 205s on front with the Kings , others may have done though

i've got very low king springs in my car with 225/40/16 simmons and it doesn't scrub, follow the link to the pic.

Thanks Craig, but, unless I am mistaken the photo's of your guards look like they have been flared a little. My guards are still standard (used to be a Grandma's car).


Can anyone else help?
