you should be able almost put 2 fingers between the fender and the tire not a 4 fingers or a fist LOL
 
@PghMiller depending on how slammed you want to be you might need more than a 25mm in the rear
I don't intend to be slammed, I just hate the large gap on stock suspension. I want to keep the OEM look but we all know the ride height needs improved! I already scrape as it is so I don't want to go too low... I plan to get an air system rather than fixed suspension... is there anything I need to know about that?
 
Never been a fan of spacers. But i might have to. The wheels look smaller with the suspension lowered.
Rather just get new wheels to fill out the gap better.
 
Bilsteins, lower perch with 25mm spacers.

Mines lowered on stock 16/17 w/ 25mm front and rear spacers. This pic was some time ago.

by the way its lowered on Bc coilovers. about 2 1/2 inch drop.
 
I will do H&R springs on Bilstein upper perch, 15 mm front and 30 mm rear spacers with stock 16''/17''. I will come back with pics when it is done.
 
Still stock height but I have already done the spacers. Fronts could be a little bit more agressive but I did not want do risk rubbing issues.

To compare with stock:

This is the stock springs with 15 mm front and 30 mm rear spacers. I realised that the front where on the lower perch while the rears where on the upper perch. Hence the slight slope forward.

I went with Tanabe springs. I first put both fronts and rears on the lower perch but the slope forward was to pronounced. I would scrape everywhere with such a setting. So I finally put the fronts on upper perch and rears on lower perch. Now the ride is pretty flat. For the time, the lowering is pretty light. But I think I will lose 1/2'' more after some miles. I have 205/45 fronts and 245/45 rears. So fender gap would also be a bit less with 215 and 255.

I will come back with better pics later and after some miles.

Tanabe springs (upper perch front, lower perch rear). Going with the lower perch front or the upper perch rear gave a pronounced slope forward. This way the car lays flat (not the ground on this picture).
 
My 99 on Intraxx just before I sold it.
 
Looks great! Hello from a fellow Swiss owner living across the pond.
Et je suis aussi Vaudois (Yverdon) :p
