you can go pretty low with that setup, just remember the lower you go the more chance you might mess up the CV Boots but I guess you gotta pay to play. The lowest people recommend is around 25" top of fender to ground. I am at about 24" just with no finger gaps and I am still fine so far *knock on wood* this is what sucks for having a AWD

^^ yup what IS2FIFTY said i heard a few people with awd ripped the CV Boots from being to low and you get some vibrations when dropped under 25" top of fender to ground
but here are a few more angles
