pedders on base

looking to get pedders and looking for answers on how my car will be looking after they were installed.

im on sportlines now (2.0Front 2.5Rear and pedders are 1.5F ant 1.7R.
wouldnt my front be .5 higher and the rear be .8 higher.
others say it will drop me arounddd the same as sportlines i mean .5 in front and .8 in the rear isnt a HUGE loss but i just want to verify this and see decent pictures because i dont like how sportlines ride and i want to know what kind of drop im going to get before it order the springs

Pedders are a waste of money, the set I had rusted out after like 6 months, the rear springs fit like
****.

And back to your comment above... An ss balt on
Pedders will sit at the same height as a base model on Pedders or vice versa

Not true. LS/LT models are higher than SS stock, so while Pedders will still drop LS/LT ones, SS models will still be lower if also dropped on Pedders.
