to stop the scrubbing a little on the back mate - take out the 2 or 3 bolts which hold your arch on and stickerflex the arches back on as your wheels will be catching the bolts/nuts at least

try that then see what happens

it probably is 60mm, you never get whats quoted though on the packing as measurements are based on a new car, the car will naturally sink with age so you wont get what appear to be a full 60mm.

also iv never seen a car settle any more then when you release the jack, think thats a bit of a myth too.

i think the drop looks good though, not too low
