It depends on your roads down there. I'm droped 2.25" and its perfect for me casue its just right for handling and I have little fender gap. So with your rims which I think are 16's I would go 2.25" and if you wanted it higher then go 1.5" and get the H&R springs.

That, my friend, is 2.25" on Sprint springs. I must warn you though that the ride is very stiff and you will absolutely need revalved Bilsteins or Konis if you can snag them.

since you're rollin on BLING, i'd say dump the SOB at least 3 inches. If you cut the stock springs, the ride won't be too bad although you'll kill your struts after a while, but you'll kill em anyway no matter how you lower it.

If those are 16's and you want total looks I agree with Caleb, 3" slam that bitch with some coilovers and if you don't like it just raise it. I change my ride height to fit my mood for the week. I usally keep it at 2.25" but some time I like to slam it 3.5" and more. :D
