Thinking about getting coilovers but they need to be a true 80mm drop or lower because i have -60mm Kit now but its more like 80mm

So if im gonna by coilovers then i need to be sure that they will drop it as much as it is now or even more would be good

How low it looks now on 16's with 195/40 tyres

Any help is appricieated(sp)

Yeh quite abit, plastic arches trimmed back, metal arches cut back to spot welds and pulled out on the rear, absolutly no scrubbing now except when cornering hard on a bumpy surface!!!! and i can easily go another 20mm+ on the rear, maybe 5-10mm max on front but probably would scrub on front then, and ive got to use a ramp to get in my garage as it is so would cuz i wouldnt be able to get in it at all then
