you will be fine lowering it 60mm on 16in alloys as long as the wheels
are not to wide and have 205 40 16 tyres,i lowered mine on 17in wheels
 lowered 70mm they were 7.5in wide with no arch mods,

you did very well looks like a bargain, :drool: :drool: :drool:
dont forget when you lower it the camber is ajustable on front
and it needs setting or your tyres will wear quickly,
kwik fit did my car camber and tracking included for £49.
