Depends very much on your suspension. With my ultra hard (read solid) Cusco suspension with 17" wheels this is what it looks like

My mate lowered his P1 by 35mm on Apex springs, Looks sweet as Apex dont lower that much but you can see the difference, and a nice firm ride too........

My 96 is lowered 35mm just with uprated springs and I've got 18s on with no probs. (not had any rear seat passengers yet though!)

I've got scoops on too!



Cheers
Rich

the blackbeast is pretty darn low, though could not really tell you how much. but put it next to a standard wagon and you'd see what I mean. This is thanks to the Bridgestone Potenza Damper for Street Ltd edition suspension that it cam with. is a tad unforgiving and have scraped the bottom of the beast a few times, but you get used to it.

Must be something about lowering your car and having scoops
