I'm not sure how much I'm lowered. I'll measure fender height tomorrow if I can find my tape measure.

Tire sizes are 205/45 and 215/45. A little bit of stretch. Offsets are +32 and +17.

If you're looking for rides that are lower than the normal drop, there's this thread too.

You can see my car in there too! Sorry I would post a quick picture but I am sing a ipad and the bb code thingy doesn't want to work.

I am lowered a little over 3 inches maybe like 3.25 at most and 2.75 at the least. When I first got the coilovers I wanted to do 2 max. But I still had a lot of wheel gap so I ignored my voice of reason lol

After measuring for the first 2 inches and not being satisfied. I stopped measuring and lowered it until there was one finger gap. And I have skinny Asian fingers, too! So there was not much room between the tire and the fender which was exactly what I was going for lol

Then I got an alignment and have them even up the height on all four wheels and DNE!
