According to the Tein website, the max drop for the CS is 1.7" front and 2.2" rear. The Flex can go 3.5" front and 2.8" rear/

trust me, unless you live at a flat street, lower it all the way is not driveable. I can't even clear my driveway when all the way lowered.

CS can go pretty low. Try and do a search and there are some pics of GS's dumped on 19 & 20's. You will be able to get a slight tuck.

With 20s, it is doable.
Look for BlueLex's car too. He is on CS and 20s and pretty low.

Those are Dronell CA-05 20x8.5 +38. It's been dis-continued for almost 3 years now. There're about 6 sets of them on CL one time. There was a set for sale in the classified section for around @2200 not too long ago.

umm i have 19s staggered with the regular 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 and for the fronts...i have 1/2 finger gap...for the rear...I had to crank it down all the way and i have zero (even gap)
imo it really gives the car a nice stance
