30-35mm lower then stock..

Shouldn't have any issues if you don't have a body kit..

I've got super lows, 50-60mm lower then stock and I have no issues..

u dont have much troubles.. steep driveways and speed humps maybe.. also abit harsher ride.. get low king springs, their about fe2 (fraction lower).. and u dont have to change your shocks and your camber should be able to be adjusted without camber toe kit.. I got quoted 350 bucks to lower and wheel alinement my vts2..

Sorry for the dirty car, i was too lazy to go outside and take a new one, this is standard FE2 on 17's.

On 18's it sits perfectly(for my liking). Anything lower seems ricey for me, and usually only happens on 0 performance vehicles.

Beware FE2 And Body Kits!

Hey Buddy here's an example of what happens when FE2 is installed by Holden with a Holden By Design body kit with 'XU6' 17 inch factory rims.
Absolute nightmare!
Everytime some unsuspecting person drives my car and just slightly nudges the front on anything raised, out pops the front passenger body kit.
It can be popped back in with some trouble but unless it's taken right off and fixed prperly it will never be perfect. Then someone else will just start the process all over again!
AAAH!
PS the other 2 photos are an example of ride height overall with factory FE2 ok.
