Help with Springs Needed

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/33644/springs.jpg"></center><p>My new coupe has bills for "S2 Spec Lowering kit"

My new house has a steeper drive and as such the car 'bottoms'

I want to return the car back to normal ride height, I have measured the springs on the car, jecked up with the wheels off (see image).

Could someone post the correct height of the stock springs and a measurement from the floor to the top centre onf he wheel arch so I can guage what height I am actually running (tyre size on rear 205/60/15)

Thanks in advance.

Once changed, the lower springs will be up for grabs..!

Here are my measurements

I am too lazy to jack up the car now, I just got home and it is raining outside so everywhere is wet. But my measurement from the floor to the top centre of the wheel arch is 630mm except my left rear which is 640mm for some old reason.
I am running H&R lowering spring with Koni adjustables onthe stiffest setting. 205/60-15 Allseason tires, I have not yet bottom out.
