Not sure how much it is lowered by but there is 420mm between the bottom of the hub nut and the arch (any lower and the ARB rubs) and the back is as low as it will go with the adjusters still in

Just my opinion but I think too low on the back on a Leon looks crap! The best I think is low on the front so you can see just the flat of the tyre level with the arch and the rear with an even gap all the way round.

Lower at the back than the front just looks wrong! Sorry

Standard bumpers on a 1.6 sx, lowered 40mm/35mm on starfish alloys. Is that what you mean? If it is I can go take you a proper pic

at least you can clean inside your alloys! with my 323mm brakes I can only clean about 1 1/2" because i cant get my hand in!

Thats for this thread I have an LC and will be lowering it on startfish alloys until I can afford some good rims.
