There isn't a set amount that you need to lower your car. It depends on various factors, such as tire overall diameter, wheel offset, and maybe the shock bound and rebound. Since you have coilovers, it's gonna be a trial and error process. That's what I had to do. Plus you can't lower the car too much when you install the coilovers, cause the springs need a few days to settle.
