I have mine at -60mm, but will be going to -30mm as its too low and the sump has been damaged.

you said it was a daily family runner!

so if its lowered it might become uncomfy meaning its not suitable for the family

mine is 60/60 and im seriously considering putting it back to standard height with the amount of potholes around my area and uneven roads, i hate having to swerve all over the road avoiding them

There was a car that colour at PVS

Not quite as faded as that though

If it's your family car then I wouldn't lower it. It will look better lower, but at the expense of comfort.
