SRi's are lowered -15mm as standard

if you have lots of speed bumps, bad roads etc in your area, then with -40 springs the front might catch a little.

cheers 4 the responses. so if it is lowered 15mm already, if i get 40mm lower springs it will only really lower it 25mm?
Also, have any of you found that the C Sri's rear arches look much higher than the front - would it be ok jus to lower the bk then so I dont get any more scrubbage on the front spoiler?

cheers
