get 40mm for day to day use. 60 looks very smart but stupidly anoying over bumpers, un even road surface, carrying loads etc

40mm is the best trade off between looks and handling 90mm is way too low

looks daft and will make it drive like a twat too, especially on public roads

yes and you dont even have to drive one to realise that 60mm let alone 90mm will make it handle like a pig
