Very difficult to see, but to be honest no not really especially on a 180 the arches sit nicely.

What is the lowering on here anyway?

Also if you had a stock 180 and a stock normal 206 with vortex's would they both sit the same?

Leave it how it is.
Personally I am not a fan of wedging the wheels in the arches and dragging the a**e along the floor. Looks more even with the same gap on front and rear arches.

But that is just my views

No, from what i remember the 180 sits 5-10mm lower than a standard 206.
