Well i haven't tried it for myself, but a common belief is that 40mm lowering is the bottom line for the longstroke. I guess it depends also on the stiffnes, so if the spring is a bit stiffer, than you just might get away with abit more. DOnt know.

Im doing my research now, and i've come to a conclusion, that all thieese lowering springs are the same "shit". they all lower the car aprox. 4 cms, and they all offer an increased stiffness of 30% over stock. Im buying apexes since they are the cheapest and the only ones availible in store nearby.

Custom wound springs would be ideal, but i cant wait much longer, must get my "show" on the road. And besides it might get too expensive.

So apex+tokico+prothane form me now. When i learn to push the car to the limit, than i'll go shortstroke and coilover.
