At 25mm, that would put the xv-01 at the maximum height. No sag would make for a very unstable ride especially if there are pot holes rather than bumps. I agree 20mm is probably pretty good.
For me 12mm is a little too high for street driving. I found that 18mm+ the car flips really easily. Does this happen at all in your rally racing? Or is there enough give in traction to avoid flipping the car?
Do the big bore shocks rub against the front gear cover?
Are the other cars capable of getting 25mm of ride height? Seems like a lot for the Touring Car chassis.

Personally I think 25 is little too high, so I'm staying at 20, and it seems to work OK so far.
