I have a similar prob too lowered mine 40mm on 15's and the arse is way too high. im gonna get lower rear bumper, psg or a carzone - i wouldn't drop it any more on 15's. every speedbump will be a pertential grounding spot!! - or you could chuck a couple of 25kilo bags of sand in the boot - got any fat mates who want a lift???

35mm is quite a small drop, 50/60 might have been better

depends what u mean. when dropping a car you get improved handling from reduced co-efficient drag and camber cuz more contact with road
