Maybe it was just that mine were bright yellow,, they just looked silly to me.

I had a Disco Safari some time ago that was standard suspension but just sat beautifully. I guess it just hadn't been worked too hard before I got it.

Standard spec are black so no worries there! New springs gained some height, I went up to 245/75/16’s which gained a little more. It’s off to Wales next month so we’ll see how it fares on a real test but it’s been great so far, wasn’t exactly bad on the 235/70 road tyres either to be fair!

You can paint over the yellow springs if you don't like it, I did like it, and they get covered with road crud after a bit anyway.

Standard suspension is good but does sag a bit after long use.
