What is a good price for King Springs to lower my car (obviously). Ozzy Tyres quoted me $450 or so, which I think is a bit steep, at modyourcar.com.au you can buy the springs for $118 a pair. What sort of price is reasonable, and what sort of places can put them on the car?

For a set of four retail to a trade is $206....RRP to a normal customer is $360...
$450 fitted is apparently a really good price :D

If you're anywhere near a The Tyre Factory, they'll supply AND fit them for $450 :)

Is the $450 supplied and fitted, or just springs alone?? If it's with fitting, thats a pretty good price!!!

Go to your nearest auto shop, not sure what places you have there, but places like Bursons, Repco, Autobarn etc can get them for you!!!

Paid $200 for mine. Didn't have to pay for fitting though. So would be roughly about right.

Our retail price on kings is $159 per pair.
So $318 for front and rear - but we usually do them for about $275 - $300 for a set.

Usually only costs about $100 - $150 to get them fitted.

i paid 140 for brand new kings fitted to the front, cos my super compressed kings was too low and rubbed when turning on 20's lol i was fine with them.... but the missus was sending me nuts... i still have the springs though... going back in soon :D

450 fitted is a very good price, does it include alignment?? probly not and you should get a wheel alignment after lowering. we charge 550 for the whole kit and caboodle.
