Default I finally put my rims on. Should I drop it more?

CHECK IT OUT 15" Rotas monted on 205/50ZR15 Kuhmo rubber. It is dropped 1.5" using the Tokico Advanced Handling kit. I have a brand new set ou Neuspeed Sports sitting around. The will drop it another .3" or so. I don't really want to purchase a camber kit. I need your opinions.

keep it right there for a while so you can see if it drives/handles like you want it to.
my EG and my DB8 are the same height and its perfect for me as my daily driver and as an autox car.

I agree. Anymore of a drop and you'll start scraping on pebbles. It looks good and it's been dropped low enough to improve performance

Looks nice, personally I would run a 195 tire and bring it down a little bit more, i had 205's on my 15's for a while and when I switched to 195's it just looked better to me and I was able to drop it even with my fender line and top of tire without worrying about it having to rub. but the car is really clean, keep it up
