No shims, front, two shims on the bottom for the rear and longer rear spring bolts is the set-up I use, but...
Be careful about lowering the car more than that because you'll run out of ride travel. Once the car's on the bump stops, ride sucks and handling goes away.
Also, be careful about using "fender to tire" distance as a measure of ride height. C4s had terrible build quality as far as body mounting and panel tolerances. That is the car to car variance was large. If you're going to accurately measure trim height, do it the way the Service Manual specifies. That's a lot more accurate.
