The lowest you can go without intensive custom work is to install sprint springs which have a 1.8 inch drop or Intrax springs (I have them on my ride) and drop the car 1.75 inches. I have 17 inch tires, and there is no rubbing.

i like the sprints, 1,8" drop. you scrape on stuff sometimes, but if you're careful it should be no problem.

Just make sure you install one of my camber plates to bring your alignment into "perfect" specs. I'm sorry but I couldn't resist since your thread was label as such. Check my homepage for more info/pics.

I don't see why not, something can be worked out. We can talk thru private message if you're interested.
