That's too low for my liking, does it still go around corners.

Gives it a moody stance, not sure on the ride and handling.

on mine - we have set them to half way - lowered a touch to remove the major gap - but def not slammed by any rate - should get a pic as the sun is out....

mine rub on the lining from time to time as well even with that 'small' amount of lowering.

looks good though once you get it all settled

EDIT:

Stuck a few pics in my build thread if you want to see how mine now sits.

Looks great like that!
What's it like on a bumpy corner though? Looks like it'd push the wheel through the arch!

I was considering lowering mine but it scrubs so so much with the wheels spaces that it'd be an absolute nightmare unless I got the arches cut and reshaped!

It looks very moody, but I think you might need beefier springs on the front.

Scrubs but not enough to cause damage, and as for the springs they still have loads of thread left to go up, i just love the lows lol
