mines on 40mm Pi fronts, and 60mm chassis dynamic rears, on apex shocks.
heavy engine up front, and not a lot of interior in the back, so sits fairly level.
handling is good, but the ride is shit.
i'm saving for coilovers.

I reckon mine is about 45 down wouldnt realy want to go to much lower, get a tiny bit of front scrubage on big bumps as it is!! handling is acceptable (bit of understeer when your on the power) Im on FK Highsports

using cheapo 180 quid a set new g-max 60 mil shocks and springs. front is well low, actually sits lower than in that pic at front and at the back, was on a slight gradient or summit. wheels never used to catch till i put new tyres on the front. would like it lower really.
the gsi ive got for turbo conversion, with speedlines on the back wheel is almost in the arch and thats with a completely stripped out rear.

Koni ajustables but sits a lot lower than 50mm at the front. The front wheels are now tucked under the arch so i would say around the 70mm mark
this was last year before the drastic drop which is not ideal at all sorting it out next week

Mines is about 40mm which is plenty low for me as the splitter scrapes speed bumps as it is
Ryan if you wanna go a tad lower then Eibach (sp) do a 50mm lowering spring for the corsa
