Default What is the optimal lowering stance for a Screw???

Right now I'm at 4.5/5.5in drop. Looks sick but I'm getting so tired of the damn cross member scraping. I used quality choice products (Beltech/DJM) products so it "rides" great, but scraping has gotten annoying. To me 3/5 doesnt even look lowered but is that where it has to be to be practical??

All you lowered guys, where are you at and how does it (clearance) ride??

probably gonna have to bag it droop. A little pricey, but you get the best of both worlds for your money. No more scraping when you're rolling and a showtruck stance when you are parked.

Damn, that would be pricey. I think i might just sell my djm lca's and go back to a 3in drop in front. I wont really look dropped cuz of my paper tires but at least i'll get some clearance back.

I'm telling you, if I had the money, that'd be route I'd take. Like it was said, best of both worlds.
