Mines lowered 60 front & 40 rear on et45 195/45/15. Take a look in my garage for pics

It sits lower than when those pics were taken as the kit was just put on then.

Heres my car mate on -60mm gmax kit. ride is fine on flat bendy rounds. But there are some roads u know the which the road has a new part like a every meter and its fcukin horriable proberly the 45 profile tyres don't help though.

i'd say go for it 60mm/15's looks well smart everyone loves how low it is go for it mate and speed bumps are no probs! although gmax kits drop lower than 60 i'd say!
