Can anyone with an lv-s chin / splitter or other alternative give me an idea of how much clearance you have at the front and how low you’ve gone on suspension pls? I sometimes do multi storey car parks and most worried about the ramps. I was thinking about 180mm would do it? Anyone got less and getting away with it? Heading to CRS on Friday and need to decide
How low / how much front clearance for kerbs / car parks?

I’m running at about 11-12cm at the front. I used to be about 9, and the splitter got destroyed by various things, kerb, garage ramps at mot time and general ramps around car parks etc.
12ish CM was fine, just had to attack steep ramps and drops at lock. But my local audi specialist just smashed my new one up. At least they offered to replace it though.
18cm would be very confortable. You can clear most UK speed bumps just at about 9cm.

Yeh, at 9cm looks cool, I managed it for about 8 months, even travelling around for way and just over speed bumps and ramps, but then for some reason I hit it once, and from that point on I kept hitting it until it was toast lol.
12cm seemed fine, well apart from the garage smashing it up :/
I only dropped 40mm so I am about 170 at the front. I'd love to have it a bit lower but its a daily driver and does some rough campsites occasionally and don't want the stress of worrying about the front. Still looks a lot better tho and CRS did a great job improving the ride!
For all it's worth I've measured mine... 170mm at back... Tricky enough on a lot of kerbs over in NI... But that's the toe bar so good stopper... At front I'm around 240mm which surprised me. Has engine undertray but set back... That's 170mm as well so seems a sweet spot... For towing I am prob too low with tow bar... Need to jack van up to get caravan hooked on properly!
