    Rear end.. sits just above the tyres... but according to Ben... if i take that little bit ( i dont know what its called) out of it.. it could go about half an inch lower... the front.. is not on its lowest as its scraping already... but could go down heaps lower at the front....

    yeah thats because of his kit... i see those two guys everyday.

    Teggy-vtir adjust his one a few notch from keith at the front and rear is all the way down to the lowest.
    I know coz me n him was installing it in his car. I reckon max drop would be like 2.8-3" if you take out the helper spring maybe 3.5"

    I've got Tein SS. I've got it lowered by an inch and a bit from memory...theres 1/2 a finger gap at the rear, and like 1 and a half gap at the front....

    I haven't tried lowering it further as then it just becomes impractical for me 2 drive it...scrub every corner and speed hump...however im sure i can easly drop it another 2 inches...resulting in the rear sitting on or below the rim...and the front sitting on or below the tire.

    Ill post pix hopefully in a week or 2 and ull c wat i mean

    Also keep in mind that Keith has 18" wheels!
    If you have smaller sized wheels, your cars naturally going to be lower.
