I have the SF-1s on my LS....they'll go as low as you want....I believe up to 4 inches is the max. I know this because when I first had them installed, my tires were tucked well inside the wheel wells to a point where I couldn't turn the steering wheel all the way without hitting the fenders.

If you were in the car with me and felt how hard Manaray pitched a hard left downhill through a canyon across traffic, you would see the light too! You might also want to look into beign the first to test the AB Flug ECS-I Scoot Tune coilovers
How much is the AB Flug setup?

thanks br1an. sounds like they are good for just a "entry level" setup. im going to have to look into them.
Now if I can only find a vendor that sells them for a reasonable price.

No idea, you'd have to find a distributor for that info. They are JDM.

nooooope, stiff as hell even at softest setting, gave me backaches after i drove boostshakalaka's car, they are excellent for track but imo not good for cruising, maybe i just have a sensitive back
