Finally! an update!
So, after getting the tyres fitted (Bridgestone Potenza RE003's 235's square) I started applying the tyre protection kit, which is like tyre shine, but better - it lasts longer, doesn't flick onto your paint and best of all, can be restored by applying one top coat.
As you can see, there is a massive differences from the photo of the tyres above to the finished product. Anyway, enough waffle, here are some pictures:

Looking freaking awesome......
Stock Height wasn't as bad as I thought.
Gonna go for a drive today and see how it feels, the rubber looks very promising!
Thanks,
Jake
