The rear looks perfect! Lower the front to match 
How low from standard are those rear springs?

LOL, yeah, not sure what I'll do yet. I'd guess they are about 2 to 2.5 inches lower than std.
 
Sorry, forgot to get measurements. Will try tonight.

I agree, that looks perfect.  Unless there are clearance issues i wouldnt be touching the front or rear ride height!

Thanks. No clearance issues with 195/50 15 tyres.
 
Joe (if you're still around), I measured with a tape measure from the bottom of the rear jacking hole in the chassis rail to the shed floor - 16cm on the RHS and 16.5cm on the LHS. The fuel tank is pretty full, so that might make the difference.
