How low do you want to go? My Stance go lower than any other coilover I've driven on.....Mainly because Stance uses a 175mm spring on the fronts to give you more thread on the damper body to work with. I bet if I dropped mine all the way down I'd be scraping pavement for sure.

Pretty low. Searchhhhhhh. Come on now. Type in stance and then look at the group buy on stance by username c2. There I did half the work for you now just read the reviews on the coilovers and how they talk about how low they go. Good luck with your quest!

i'm running GR+ Pro and Stance can go low, and i mean low. compare to KTS or Silk Road, they can go lower than them. I'll try to get some pics of my car if i have some time later.
*warning* going low isn't all kool, your piping will suffer.

Yep
but not being able to go low enough is not something you have to worry about with them.

I have them.
Your ass will scrape the ground. Not the car, but your actual ass.
I had to raise mine up a couple inches in the back from the factory setting, and im still tucking tire by 2 inches.

I have a little over 3 inches of thread left on the perch still. Cut a collar and you will go lower.......but why?

I have at least 3" left to go down up front, with the Z32 uprights on the rear I have about 1"-2" more i can go. This is without preloading the springs at all.

They go lower than they need to. I have like 2-3 inches left on the threads to drop it more with ZERO preload on the springs. My tension arm brackets are like 2.5-3" from the ground! I have the GR+ Pros on my S13.

Stance basics on a 95 had plenty of room to go lower, and frame rail was 2" off the ground. Exhaust was on the ground.

I have KTS on my S13 and I have them almost as low as possible in the front and it doesn't seem very low at all. Is this nowmal with KTS? I had Megan's on my S14 and had the tires tucking like hell and still had ALOT more room to go lower.

u can go as low at ur frame allows you to and as long as u have supppeerrr stiff springs but really if u into drifting y would u want to go that low? its easier to transition the cars weight when it not so low.
I got my S14 to rest the chassis on the RUCA w/ no subframe spacers and there was room to go
basically it can lower your car past where it's physically able to go
