Looks really smart mate have you thought about fitting some wheel spacers though to push the wheels to the edge of the arch they look a little sunken now you've lowered it

15mm might be a bit much but I wouldn't actually know on a C4 mate I've only ever fitted them to a BMW before and I had to drop down to 12mm

25mm on the stock 17's is a decent size.

I ran 20mm on 18x8 wheels which stuck out quite a bit further. Internal tyre was in roughly exactly the same place as the original tyre. The outer edge was just under 40mm further out.

As a comparison this is what I used to run, and it cleared. Handy little website for working out offset and tyre sizes in terms of width. Have to ignore the strut, it's not accurate to the C4.

What I ran when I had the 18's fitted. Tried and tested basically to fit, with quite a large amount of lowering too.

What 25mm spacer will be like on 17's compared to mine on 18's. Easily fits!

Picture of my 18's to show you that it was still in the arches.
