my 98 had steeda springs i thought it was 1 3/4 drop i had 275/40/17 and 255/40/17,and i had no rub,but my h-pipe dragged bad it was a hypertech though. the bassani,bbk,and mac's are more snug if you know what i'm saying.

well my headers are about 4 maybe 5 inches off the ground and I dont want to lower it so far that dips in the road, railroad tracks, speed bumps, illegal immigrants and other common obstacles of the roads interfers with them. Thats a lot of money under there. lol. Someone please tell me how far I can go! [X(]

if u have LT headers, and you want to drop your car for looks, you might as well not drop it because you cant drop it very much regardless..... if you want to drop it so it handles better, then you can probably pull off around 1 inch...
