How low can i go, right now my car is sitting on 3.5 inch eibach springs, and it is tuckin 195-50-15 in the fenders, i want a body kit, just how much lower does the body kit come to the ground looking at WW kit, (i love the side skirts on that kit) but with the amount of drop i have will the kit be to close to the ground to drive. does anybody no how many inches lower the kits hangs down.
i need to find out so i can finish my wish list for christmas
wife said she would get me my kit if i really really really reallly want it.
but i doubt she will get me a kit and a set of coilovers:flash:

so nobody knows if the body kit will fit without raising the car back up.

i have the same size tires and i bought some adjustable coil-overs. I had my coil-overs to the lowest setting which they say is 4" and my body kit was just fine considering how slow i went over speed bumps. The ride quality sucked-ass that low, hope yours is better

kris is that 3.5 in the rea also, if it is mine is a full inch lower in the rear it is tuckin the back tires also but that is good to know that i can kit it with out raising i like the way it sits and it really rides pretty good for sitting that low to the ground, i am going to put coil overs on it later just don't want to right now.

No not really bad just have to slow down for speed bumps, the only time i ever really have a drag problem is when i have a second person in the car the weight makes the mud flaps drag on the ground.

My 4-1 header has been smashed up, and the tow hooks always caught the driveway. But other than that, I never had ap roblem. I raised it up to about a 1 1/2" drop though. That was too low.
CF, the rear was not dropped down in that pic.

Oh, if the wife does let you get a kit, I know a guy that can get them for $600 shipped.
