Here's mine. 225/45R15 on 7s and 8s. I recently trimmed the rubber air dam up a bit so I could get over speed bumps and up my driveway without dragging.

Fun fact, when I change to my other set of wheels with 195/50-15 tires the air deflectors under the floor scrape on the floor as I drive into my garage.... 
"right" is completely objective, depends on who you ask.

Probably too low for correct suspension geometry but it looks nice. I need to raise the front spindles to correct the suspension geometry and improve the ride quality.

Would like to go another 1" lower and remove the rubber from the flex dam!
4" to the front doughnut. 4 1/2" to rear doughnut. Click to view attachment
I don't see how it can get much lower since as you can tell from the picture it shows the clearance between the top of the front wheel and the inside of the fender to be about 1 1/2". Click to view attachment

Love the stance!
What is your ground clearance to the front doughnut and what is the clearance at top of front wheel and inside of the fender well?
This is not a good example of proper handling stance, but couldn't help remembering it from the old days...

about 2 1/2" top of tire to wheel well.

I see the lip resemblance, but I was thinking of Troy and Dave.
I guess we're now the import tuner crowd?

On a narrow body car, no less. How do you like them tires, any issues you'd care to expand on?
Looks great...
As a race car goes with modified suspension and an aftermarket body...I like this (along with Bob's) car!

I agree...love that car!
Here's mine it's been lowered and corner weighted with Bilstein's on all 4 corners and Monoballs
I always thought the 'right' stance for a 914 was on jackstands
What no photos showing the wheels cocked out so the tire rides on the inside edge?
50 or 60 series tires will help a lot on the stance !

Too low functionally (but looks pretty good) - 17" wheels with 35-series tires...

Any lower and the front tires rub the fenders. I also slightly scrape the air deflectors entering my garage.
Stock stance....nose high.
As pretty as this is...the ride height is even better with Rob IN the car - but only to one side!
