i believe it has been dropped 30mm on koni. i think the profile that the profile on th 15's was bigger so i think they had a bigger rolling diameter. not sure though.

cheers mate
I'm currently running on 15's ET35 with 195/45 tyres, lowered 60mm on front and 50mm @ the rear on yellow Koni's.
But the front wheels are rubbing like hell against the wheelarches.
Looks are great but can't stand the noise it makes under hard cornering and even on roadbumps etc.
So i've ordered 30mm Eibach springs to get rid off that nasty rubbing.
