I have only lowered mine using the springs from a 2.0CDTI 165ps SRI model.

The SRI springs are 10mm shorter and to me that is more than enough.

I have a pedal box on mine and that has transformed the car no end.

on 19s id imagine anything more than sri springs would be as hard as nail ride quality, and possible scrapage issues

When I had the 17's I was scraping, put 19's on and everything good no more scrapping fitted 10mm shorter springs and I'm back to scrapping again.

MHO anything over 20mm is just way too much for the J.
