To those of you Lowered Spring - How low did you go?

[BigPip]

I am about replace my rotors, shocks and coilovers but at the same time I want to take the car down some more but wasn't sure how far I could go before I run into problems. Besides that, I am sure some new M8 members would like to know too.

My Eibachs claim they drop 1.5 inches. However I am convinced once they settle in, it's a 2 inch drop. I can't complain.

Here is where I currently sit but want to bring it down a little more.

DO what I'm planning on doing, cut one loop on each spring. That will bring you down another 1.5 if I'm not mistaking. Someone feel free to chime in.

How much in inches are you looking to drop?

I have already cut some off, I don't remember if it was one or 1.25 coils. I would love to have them tucked in just a little but at the same time I don't Want to bottom out my new coilovers/shocks either. I would be happy if the gap was less to but I want more. I am going go game another quarter off or maybe 1/3 and see where I end up.
