    I'm sure the Zetec S' are lowered by 15mm from standard, basically if you were going to go for a 35mm kit expect a 20mm drop and so on with other sizes of drops.

    It's definitely not 35mm already. I've got 30mm eibach springs on mine and there's a noticable difference (lower :)) to standard.

    With 35mm I have like 20 mm or so of clearance between the tyre and arch, you'd notice it!

    Just don't carry fat chicks in there, most cars will go 50MM before they encounter issues like rubbing and bump stops, keeping your load under a size 8 will save you a world of issues.
