Should the rear be lower?
I just installed Ohlins Road and Track coilovers on my 996tt with 18" GT3 wheels (wide body fitment). I am debating whether or not I should drop the rear another 5mm or leave it alone. Does the wheel gap above the rear tires look too big?

I ask myself the same question constantly when looking at my car and the heights look similar to yours. I would like to drop the rear slightly more but the fronts are about where I'd like and am afraid to lose too much rake...
Personally I'd drop the rear more on yours and front as well if needed to keep the rake but its really personal preference. Wheels look great though!

The ride and handling are greatly improved. The best way I can describe it is firmer than stock and significantly more compliant both in cornering and handling bumps / bumpy / uneven sections of road. The way the car rides now, it does not get unsettled and stays firmly planted without being overly rigid.

I could have dropped it 5 mm more. However, I didn't want drop the front anymore as it is already a pain to get into my driveway.
