15's, 60mm drop and standard post 97 bumper is only 3inches from the ground.

I measured mine.

I catch the rubber splitter all the time.

is that with the 14" sport/sri alloys?

They are 185/60/14 arent they?

If so then they have a larger rolling radius than 195/45/15. But its only by a tiny amount.

Don't ever go up a multi storey car park in it! Mine's -60mm on 16's and I found out that you can get up them fine but once you wanna come back down...........!!!

Passenger had to get out whilst I battered the thing down the ramps!!

Smacked the splitter off last week on a ramp anyway - needs screwing back on!

Yeah mines down 60mm on 15's.

I never go in multi stories.

Have to be carefull all the time but sometimes slopes are unavoidable.
