To me the 1.5" drop is perfect. Any lower just doesn't seem right to me [:@]

I agree with the 2inch drop... look at vettes and any other "performance" ride, none of them have a 4 inch gap between tires and the fender wall. 2 inch drops it to where it SHOULD be.... I hate fender gaps, looks like azzzzzzzz!!

I had a 2" drop, and loved the way it looked, but i couldn't deal with my car scraping on everything.. now it's 1.5".. still looks good and i don't have to worry as much.

Im in NJ, I have a 2' drop on my car. It looks amazing. I definitely would NOT go any lower than 2' because then you will really have problems. I have a 2' and I have small problems, like I have to angle the car everywhere, but its worth it, because the car looks 100 times better than if its not lowered.

Go 2' it looks tremendous.
The 2" springs on our convertibles drop less than it would on a coupe. Sportlines say 2" on coupe but 1.7" on a convertible in the front. So they are damn near perfect on a vert but could be too low on a coupe.
