That looks a lot lower than 35mm ....lools as low as mine and i have the 55mm h+r springs. Take a look at these two cars with the h+r's to see what you think:

Thats definately lower than 35mm..............
You've also set the front level with the rear, you should have the rear very slightly higher (IMHO) thats becuase it goes down on launching, accelerating forward and most kits suggest a slightly higher rear

The -50mm H&R springs will drop standard turbo spring height by around 25-30mm which is more than enough IMHO, check my profile out.

The rear springs were at standard height and I had the front pair to match. As standard the front end is slightly higher.
