Ring the insurance company first and see what they say.

Does it look lowered or does it look dumped? What model car is it? Some cars naturally draw attention whether they are lowered or not.

Not too hard to put a set of stock springs in if the car is a good thing.

It just has to be a legal height, which I think is 100mm from the lowest point.

Should be no issue with insurance as long as they know about it.

The adapters are completely illegal. Plenty of nice wheels that fit.
