You do realize when you chop springs, they're not actually "springs" anymore right?

lawl...pretty much :P



and i want some qualification from the OP
cause ANYONE with airbags could lay it on the ground and win...but
do you mean drivable? airbags? coils? on springs?
do you mean lowest as in the frame to ground? bumper to ground? wheel gap? lip kit to ground?

cause i have no lip kit and 17" rims with VERY low pro tires, so i have a 2 finger gap all around and have more then a couple inches from bumper to ground, but my frame and undercaraige is LOW..and i mean LOOOOOOOOW
i am sitting on ss/tc struts and h&r sport springs


otherwise this will just turn into a pissing match and whiteSSbalt will get all butt hurt when guys throw up the "i am lowest w/ (insert qualifiactions here)" as they are posting their interpretation of what you want...so please...before they all start comparing dick sizes...let us know what you mean..
kthxby

well im estimating, I measured as i was cuting and i did a half coil at a time and a half coil was a half inch so actually as I redo my math my front would come up to 4.0inches of drop.I need to get some 17's and I think it would look alot better

I got the H&R sport springs. My cars a 2007 which i bought in September of 2006, It was lowered 2 weeks later, at the time Konis werent out yet, they came out the next year, i was busy buying other ****, then 2008 I finally got them and WOW what a world of difference, if your going to drop to the H&Rs Id highly reccomend doing Konis at the same time, at first I thought oh this aint bad how different could it be? and BAM I did it and I fell in love. I also have progress rear sway bar and raw front strut bar, as well as bridgestone potenza pole position tires, and in corners my car eats them up. It says give me more. handles like a dream. And I think its the best stance for just springs too, gets rid of wheel gap better than the sportlines that everyone bandwagons on.
