Nice alloys, but yeah you need to lower it!!!!!
When I first put my 17's on (not lowered) it was no where near as high as that. What reg is your car? It might not have settled down fully yet.......thats all I can think of
edit- just read its a 2002.........same as mine so i dont know ?????

Its on a 52 plate, the pics were taken less than 5 minutes after puttin the rims on, didnt even move the car so the suspension hadnt settled but after i drove it around for a bit it settled back down but it still looks like i could drive over other cars rather than arund then lol

UPDATE:
Today i was on the motorway on a flat and level stretch and i did 100mph (that is with the 17's on!)
jus thought i'd say tha because i remember reading a few posts, especially one by Wolfrace saying tha the could barely get more than 75ish,i have noticed the dip in acceleration tho!
i have NO engine mods and its a 8v 5dr
