It is in the FAQ. Did you happen to read that? It is 1.40 by Eibach's site. It may differ from each car depending on weight from audio, engine mods, weakness of stock shocks, etc. They are 1.40" lower than stock, judged by Eibach. Go by them.

Rep Power: 412 they dont know what they are talking about. 1.5 is feasible depending on the things I mentioned above. anything more than 1.75 is way out of range.

Rep Power: 0 Eibach designed their Sportline springs to give you the best of both worlds ride quality and performance. I recommend them If you just want to close that ugly gap on your fenderwell. The drop should be no more than 1.75 inches.
In the 2-3 inch range your car will loose its center of balance and start bouncing really bad causing your factory shocks to be doing more work than it was originally designed for, eventually you will have to replace your shocks.
I recommend a coilover system that comes complete with the dampners so you can always change your desired ride height any time you want to.
