Similar setup to rmn actually - koni ride / height adjust, h&r springs (I think), same 16" (16x7 ET35) speedlines but on Toyo Proxes T1-S - think its probably dropped about 30-40mm overall.

 

Picture:

I find that the car understeers a lot more than it used to when I was riding on BMW E30 BBS wheels (15x7.5 ET25 I think) - but used to have Eagle F1 GSD3's on those and the grip was phenomenal off them.

front 9x16 et 25

 

rear 9x16 et 15

 

all with 205/40's.
