50mm sounds like a good trade-off between tarmac-scraping-low and speedbump-friendly - go for it 8)

get sum coilovers for around £500 and lower it till ur heart is content!

or a set of sports spring and shocks of 60mm is quite popular too...

even with -50mm , ull still need shorter sports shocks so u may as well go lower :wink:

what shocks you got?

50mm is fine, go for it - upgrade the shocks later if you can't afford it for now 8) not everyone's made of money!
