Pics of the astra? :romance-inlove:
60mm should get it looking good on the 15's imo

60mm all round but the back is a torsion bar so youll need that lowered too.

iv done a few torsion bars before so no problem im wanting some arch gap tho

40 or 50mm if you have speed bumpers and curbs to get over in the area you live.

depends on what you want. ive gone 55 on the front with back to match on 15's. handeling is epic but for stance i think you need at least a 60 drop on it mate. maybe a little reverse rake on the back end. its all about what you think looks good.
