probably 5".. thats not too realistic unless if your driving on smooth tracks.
please be more specific... lowest without rubbing... probably 2.5". roll your fender and gut the inside fender wells you could go pretty low. just remember the lower you drop your car, the more money your probably going to have to spend. also keep in mind if its a daily driver, your going to have to worry about every little bump on the road, cant even go over speed bumps, etc...

I have 215/40/17's on my car and it is lowered 2.25"

I think you can go 3" and be safe.
