My old 1.2 looked s**t hot...Bar the rear lights and skirts...Although they looked ok actually. :)

Went round corners 100x beta than my 172...

60mm or more or i wouldnt bother, you could always get a fat bird and stick her in the back when you drive about if you want the 35mm look!

I say, if you sell your car and the lad cant get it MOT'd because the garage requests it raised or spacers put on it, its a fail...... then its about the right height!
seriously though, so many people lower their cars by 30-40 mm and wish they went lower! 60mm or lower I say!!!
 
or you could go 80mm on fk's and any less be a ghey. :clown:
oh and i passed my MOT. less just say it just about fit on the rollers. lol

  No more clio's for me!
For general road use, i'm sure they will be fine??

I've got a spare set of 172 alloys if i don't like 'em. :)

I'm wanting to lower but will 60mm not cause complications? I've got a 1.2 16v 55 reg with TD pro race 16'' alloys...
