Is the rust on the rear arch?

Doesn't need lowering in my opinion. That's all it is though, my opinion. Good luck.

Nice looking E30 - are the wheels staggered? Rears look like they have a deeper dish than the fronts...

Yeah the rust is on the rear arches

Rear wheels are indeed Ronal Ls

As for the ride height , I think im gonna keep it at the height it is now , Ive had very low cars in the past and since driving back from Cardiff to London I enjoy the comfort
