i think its goes;
-60mm: quite a lot.
-40mm: just as much.

so go -60mm (you'll get blasted else, if you don't) and get rollin.

Ive got a 1.2, on 15s and 195/45 r15 tyres. Its beem lowered on apex -60 springs. The front arch is fine and didnt need nework, but i had to fold the lip on the rear arch, cos it rubbed even when it wernt lowered. If you do i good job with the lip, then you wont have any worries!
