i'm down the full 80mm just now,pic is of car on a hill,but with adjusters off will be a bit lower 


No way that's down 80mm. Mine is only down 60mm on the front and is lower than yours:



Mine is also down all the way on the rear with adjusters in:

Adam & Barry - your cars look spot on, maybe a little lower than I would be wanting.

I've lowered mine a small bit more since the pic in my sig. It's still not low at all though. I think that picture might be deceptive due to the height and angle it was taken from.

Whatever you choose to do, just avoid budget coils. I've had a few sets of them and they're god awful.

Ill get some pics of mine on rdx coils later today, mine are no where near all the way down so should give you a decent idea of how low they can go. I'm on 19's though.....
