The national thing was a huge flop and went nowhere...
SA is 50mm max, and 7mm tyre.. Yep, you read that right...

I went with Tough Dog Foam cell shocks and the 200kg front and rear springs. Check out the link below for WA if that's where you are (interesting stuff is in section 4):

Vic is 75mm total lift, tyres + springs.

Yes extremely unlucky Tony, but the salesman has every reason 2 say he won't install them if he believes it 2 be illegal

Is that the current regulations now, or something that is proposed?

I'm not the smartest cooking in the class

But from my understanding from both VIC Roads modification guide and infrastractures NCOP11 Section LS Tyres Suspension Steering ( VSB14 )

50mm is still the current Total limit above factory ride height

But sometimes ( most ) I just don't understand what is written in front of me so I am probable wrong

13.3.1 Option 1 on page 7 of the VicRoads guide:
"This option allows a combination of suspension lift and the fitting of larger diameter tyres that results in a total lift of up to 75 mm without the need for the testing and certification normally required by VSB 14 for lifts above 50 mm provided the following requirements are met."

What it does call into question though is fitting combinations of springs and shocks that are not part of a matched kit from a single manufacturer......

So as I read it for you guys, you can 'legally' install a 50mm spring lift and the either 25mm in body or tyres to give an over all of 75mm.. Or any other combination..
