That's the joy of coilovers. I'd start as low as you realistically feel you can drive and raise it up if you don't like it. Obviously be very careful. If you start low, and raise it up, you will never feel like "i wonder how my car would be just a bit lower" and continue to drop it and pay for alignment.

dump that ****, if i can make it through riverside roads dumped over 3 inches, i am sure you can do it too. and tein basics wont even drop it past 2.5 or so, just set it at teh lowest setting.

As low as they go dude! If I had coil overs my car would be as low as possible. I got springs and shocks because it's the most cost effective way for me to get lower on a budget, but ideally slammed would be the best, haha.
