Looks like it could use some more lowering. I feel that the perfect height is where the fender is right above the top of the tire when looking at it straight on. I don't like any tuck, slightly higher than tucking.

Definately go lower. If there is more than a 1 finger wheel gap all around, you're not low enough I prefer the front wheels to be SLIGHTLY tucked inside the fender (top of the tire is slightly inside the fender) and have the rear wheels right at the fender. That's just my personal taste for lowering, but eh...what do I know

drop the front about half an inch. yea it wont look as nice as slammed but with the slight drop in the front, gives you a bit of oversteer. oversteer equals grip for FFs
