How Low can I go...?

Hey all,

yea so i just ordered progress springs(2in drop) and im seriously considering getting a wing west g5 kit withn the viper front on my 17in bverdicts with 215/45, my question is if i were to get both how low to the floor would i be? how much clearence, and would i scrape often on the rough roads of los angeles, oh and would u reccoment it or should i get springs with less of a drop. please help me out, i appreciate any help. thanx in advanced.

Yeah I have the progress springs too so make sure you get a camber kit and I'll Pm you later when I get some extra funds to buy that G5 kit I'll be pretty interested in seeing what you end up looking like.

cuz i have the octane front bumper and i have progress, with the bumper on my shoe fits under with like .5" clearance...and Octane is made alil lower than most kits...and average shoe is bout 3-4" thick(think so) and the g5 kit doesn't really go that low.

Ive seen the Octane with the Progress. VERY low. Goldline will be better without doubt.

Listen to everyone, you will need a camber kit. As for the clearence, your fine. you may have to do the side ways dip thing, but as for streets and pot holes, I think your good bro. That viper bumper is not that low.
