I enjoy the way it rides very much. Feels much better than stock; stiffer of course, but that's part of the reason you do this mod, right? Less body roll, etc. Prior to lowering, I drove in S+ all of the time. Now I drive in S 100% of the time....quite rough in S+ now. I have a DLM, so I drive in S mode, and change ride height on the DLM to override stock height settings.

But it's your car and if you are happy with it, that is all that matters so please take no offense by what I say or anyone else does.

If your wheels are 20x9 ET35 and 20x10" ET45, then I'd say a 255/30 or even 265/30 with a 295/25 is the best bet. I say this as this is what I'm considering though having decided yet. I say those sizes based on seeing this set up and liking an less stretched look that fills the wheel wells. If not lowered, having tires that are stretched, even mildly, makes the ride height look higher in my opinion. If you stay at stock height, you want to ensure your tires are more beefy or square, IMO.

No offense taken. I am learning more about car modifications & I'm still really new to this stuff. I would like to learn as much as I can.

Car looks great! Can you measure ground to fender when you have a chance. I just lowered mine on the same kit and mine doesn't seem as low as yours. I actually didn't lower my rear via links since the front after lowering was at the same ride hieght as rear in S/S+
