I think my research payed off.
1) the ride confort is UNCHANGED! The soft sport suspension is unchanged. Very happy with that.
2) The handeling of the car is even better then before. Have to test it out some more but i am very satisfied with the handeling in corners.
3) the 19 inch wheels look much better. Before they seemed somewhat small but now i think the 19 inch is perfekt for the car.
4) the car looks more sporty. The picture i had in my head when i bought the car
is now brought to life.
5) i recommend this to the more sporty drivers. You wont regret it.
6) My 2cm spacers in the rear and 1 cm spacer in the front dont rubb. I tested this
before i lowered it and i was sure it would not rub and yes it doenst.

Nice!
Question, are those wheels staggered? They don't look it.
If not why not? They make the rears in 19x9.5 which will give you a bigger lip plus probably negating the need for spacers in the rear.

It will drop however some more because springs have to settle.
