   40mm for good handling and looks
   60mm for rubbish handling and many problems and so on but awesome looks

   usually everyone lowerd 60mm thinks its awsome till they get in a car with a decent suspension set up at a decent height

    I would say 40mm and that comes from me being down 60mm. Depends what the roads are like how practical 60mm would be. If your after handling go 40mm also.
