LTB helps the ride considerably, but you do lose ground clearance. I don't think it would scrape on stock suspension, though...also SFCs are a good choice, but you pretty much have to find someone to fabricate them for you, because the warpspeed SFC's are very hard to come by..
EDIT: oh and get 20mm spacers, I have them and they even rub on bumps if i have a load or a couple people in the back. I can fix it by re-aligning my rear beam because it only rubs on the right side, but with 25mm spacers, both sides would rub

Thought about rolling your fenders? Helped me drastically (I have 33mm spacers in the rear with OEMs).

A few things I wanted to add:
Don't' worry about scraping LTB. I have a 1.8 inch drop and I scraped mine only once and only because I decided to drive though something I was not supposed to drive though... lol (I also live in NYC and it's my daily driver, not to mention, it's my only car.)
Tell the alignment guys to set your toe to 0 for a slightly better steering feel. You can even set it to a slight toe out but the car will not be as stable at high speed (100+ mph)

It's off center toward the right, so only my ride tire rubs on the inside of my fender. It doesn't rub very much, just when i have a lot of weight in the back going over a pretty large bump.
I wonder how many people have actually done that. lol

The stock setup is for comfort and a bit of sport the tires sound good for racing and might make a bit of a difference in the way it holds on the highway! i think if you plan on doing mods to the handling than keep the ride height at a similar to stock level! (especially on bad roads!!)
