Mine was about 90mm at the front. I had problems with some speed bumps and pot holes etc. Personally I wouldn't go lower than 60mm.

Handling was very good actually, I was quite surprised. Just round town, speed bumps etc they can be a nightmare. 60mm is a good compromise.

for handling, keep the drop to 50mm all round as a maximum drop, any more sacrifices handling, some will agrue it looks better lower though.
depends what you want from the car.
as for the 80mm on the rear, that will be fine with no detremental effects on the actual car and its mechanical state. just use the correct length and poundage springs to retain some amount of decent handling.
