Yeah it's on coilys, not really sure how much iv dropped it. The only thing stoping me going lower is the driveshafts would knock the chassis :/

How is the ride - harsh?

Iv got falken 452 215/35 on front. they have a little stretch and dont rub on anything. Still have 225/40 on back tho


The ride is firm but not uncomfortable. What I loose in comfort I gain in looks : /

Chassis notch is about £150 I think. and will give you a lot more security when being low to prevent the driveshaft  from rubbing.
What coils are you using?
Before I had the airride fitted I ran FK's that were a similar height but made the car feel like it had wooden wheels! :grin:

Height looks spot on

I really need to invest in some coilovers, but am a little concerned at fitting them this close to the winter months...
