Too low?

I would agree, looks like too much rake to my eye..... I would use RS spec as a base line and go higher or lower from there... RS spec is 124mm front 107mm rear.
The other thing, don’t use the body to measure ride height, it can be off considerably... Use the factory frame locations (I’m sure someone can dig up picture/diagram if you don’t have them).

Perfect. Thanks, guys
Yes, 45 offset, however photo is misleading....pretty hefty camber right now and has me a bit nervous about being able to tuck these in.

I'll bet, the more usual 8.5 fit is ET52 - 56, the ET 45 sits 7mm more outboard than the most aggressive other 8.5 I've ever seen

Looks too low in the front. I would raise it up a bit up front, and lower it more on the rear.
RS height +10mm at the body meassuring point should be a good height.
That should keep you at the 1 degree rake and avoid any bump steer issues that you'll run into if you leave it at this height without the RS uprights.

As others have said, looks like too much rake but sounds like you may have fixed it. As a side note, with the turbo S front lip you do lose a good amount of front end clearence. We'll put it this way, may car is set as low as I would ever want to drive it on the streets; however, when you compare this to other lowered, non-turbo S lip cars mine looks like it can come down quite a bit. My point, make sure you don't go too low with the turbo S bumper and don't comapre your height necessarily to others on here that don't have the same bumper. Here are some pics of my car for a reference...and an excuse to show off my baby ![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
