The wheels are a great improvement - really add to the coloring.
Personally I prefer the standard ride height, but I'm pretty much on my own in that I think!
I prefer the wheel center to also be the center of the radius of the wheel opening in the fender - especially on a car like the MINI which makes such a feature of the wheel openings.
(In my case, a 2nd reason is that some of the good driving roads around here have some pretty big bumps in places, some of which already bottom out the suspension - and I'd be worried about bottoming out the
whole car if it was lowered.)
Really nice Photoshop work BTW, especially to keep the background smooth in the lowered picture.
