Default superlows and car STILL sits high!

heya...got superlows fitted a month ago then last week bought 18 inch koya octanes so now the car looks high!NOT HAPPY JAN!
Anyhoo,i done some research and because i went with the 245's the car actually sits 5.6mm higher now(not much i know but im a fussy *****)
Wot i was wondering is if i go to ultralows(10mm lower than super)do u think ill have a problem with guards etc?
it should sit about 4.4mm lower than when i had my 15's on superlows
Any suggestions?
p.s........very ****ed off that i have to change springs in less than a month
(sniff)if anyone wants almost new superlows for around 250 bux write me,im in perth)

Did you make sure the springs are seated properly in the bump stops? I had that problem...

I have superlows and 15" mags (yeah i know) and mine still looks high, took mudflaps off and it makes the front look lower but the back looks like a 4x4 again. going round to compare to another ef shortly, it also has superlows but from memory looks heaps lower than mine
