take out the springs cause that is riding on the bump stops... ...that is ricey and unstreetable....if you want super low get "race springs" but get good shocks liek koni yellows to suport that drop

in ontario the law states that with the wheels pointed straight if any of the rubber is in contact witht he frame or body of the car it's deemed too low.

and yes I do think that based on that picture it's too low, not according tot he law but accord to the law of physics and how things work. double wishbone suspensions were made to have lots of wheel travel.
