I dropped my car 60mm and there is plenty of clearance if you want to go to 16's. The drive is so much better!!!

I thought i would show you a pic!

I've actually got spax with a 60mm drop all round (Lowering top cap adds 5mm - 10mm) Thats on standard rims...and tbh front sits nice and low and my splitter scrapes over almost every speed bump, how ever im not that happy with the back :(
