- Thu Mar 31, 2011 1:43 pm #247359 Going to do a 5 lug conversion: my goal being; EK9 wheels.

This means i'll change from my EG3's 13" castor wheels to 15". Though, i'm not sure if the rolling diameter will be changed.

Will type R springs lower it? I want it to be lowered only for aesthetic reasons; the last thing i want is a crashy ride, especially living in the pothole/ speedbump city.

The other option i've spotted is Spoon progressive springs.

I must get an ARB the rear end is stepping out over rough surfaces at slow speeds...

You know how it is, interesting read that of your first build; harsh luck there! Although we do tend to think 'what if' afterwards, and become more alert.

Cheers.
