should be fine lowered 40mm with just you or a front passenger in, but as soon as you put people in the back te arch will scrub like fuck.

Ive got et45 lowered -40mm all round and i only get scrubbing when i have 3 people in the back, or two fat bastards, but i havent done any arch mods atall, you might have to cut away some of the underside of the plastic arch or de-bolt them and bond them on

Mine are ET40 and fit under the rear arches, the only bit it sometimes hits is the Irmscher extension on the rear bumper, but NEVER on the arches
