i was on about the front really, i didnt think the back looked 80 as i have 80mm springs and sits lower, but doesnt look as low as yours, my arch is a mm off the rim. and im down 80mm on the front but theyre higher poundage springs (for a 2.0ltr) so im guessing thats why its not as low as i want.

thats with the rear down 80mm, the drivers side is slightly lower tho as my passenger side arch is dented lol and has been raised a little :confused:

its slightly lower as you can tell, then again looking at it there its the same Lol. oh well, nevermind, i wanrt it lower :(

ste: i read somewhere that your car went alot lower when you uprated your shocks, was it basically sitting on the standard shocks before? im still on standard shocks on the rear but when i take springs out completly it sits lower, so if i did uprate them it wouldnt do the same as your car did would it? if that makes sense...
