Wheelgap = FTL.

However low you have to go to have less then 0.5" wheelgap. If possible, try to keep ground clearance (at the lowest part) atleast at 5" Any lower (ofcourse depends on the roads) and chances of bottoming out, ect.. increase considerably.

 
Just enough to get rid of the fendergap. I'd say somewhere between 1" to 1.75"

Take a look and see what the eibach springs are running, because they're around that height difference, and they're considerable quality.

And word to the wise, go ahead and upgrade struts/shocks as well. Stock shocks and struts will blow out pretty quickly due to the new amount of travel adjustment.

 
1" Would make it look good but 2-4 would be awesome. I'm not a fan of the slammed looked so I wouldn't go any more than that.

Tires are too small.
No they aren't...it just looks goofy because it needs to be lowered. I wonder if all 7000 of your posts are as dumb as the last 4-5 I've noticed

 
That complex looks like every complex in Georgia, no joke.

Nice car though, looks x10 better than any Neon I've ever seen.

Neons rear end are really high aren't they? Try to balance it out, I've seen a balanced out neon and it was really nice.

 
thanks for the replys so far...the rims are 17's as nothing more would fit without mods... the rear is a little higher than the front stock...and I thought lowering was after the body kit........I don't have one in mind yet......anyway thanks so far.......it looks a ton better than it used too...on the donut n all
