Trust me dude - you can run it lower than that on 15s without any rubbing, here's a pic of mine when it was at the best I've had it, still got to get it reset to that level again...

Image

You'll have alot of fun buggering about with your coilovers to get the best ride height/damper settings for driveability from it, I know I did and still do with mine :D

Looks like it's coming along nicely - so have you got yourself a 2.1 ZT lump built up already or is that still in the planning stage? :)

Cheers,

Andy
