Re: how much can the mach be lowered with LT
h&r ss should be around 1.75" or so i believe. Ive got my X pipe tucked up really well (stock manifolds) and weld in subframe connectors, you have to CRAWL over any decent sized speed bump not to scrape.

Re: how much can the mach be lowered with LT
I dont have a measurement on the drop but Ive got eibach sportlines with no isos front and back w/ slp longtubes. Ive really have to pay attention pulling into parking lots, etc. I scrape a lot but nothing too bad. To me the stance is worth a few scrapes here and there.

Re: how much can the mach be lowered with LT
I believe it depends on the headers, I think some sit a little higher then others. What kind do you have? Everyone i have heard with SLPs scrape. Im hoping my BBK's with Eibach prokit dont but well see...

Re: how much can the mach be lowered with LT
Im not too sure of my exact drop, but I have coilovers in front, adjustable LCA's & cut stock springs out back. i am running Mac LT's, & my car is pretty dumped. I do scrape on speedbumps, but not very bad.... Mac LT's do tuck alot better than other brands though....
Here are a few pics for reference...
