    Measure the hieght of the reinforced jack points behind the front wheels and in front of the rear wheels. I think the stock height distance is 6 - 6.5 inches.

    they are probably sport line or ground controls, should have some writing on them somewhere to tell what they are.

    Looks like they are either 2.25' or 2.50' by the picture. I have sprint 2.25' springs and yours look close to mine if not lower.

    Then again I didn't know you had 17inch rims. So I'll say it has to be between a 1 inch to 1.5 inch drop. Looks good though.
