I know cusco rears can go an honest -6 to 7 inches lower than stock in the rear with-out the rear perches but the front only like 3 to 4 inches lower than stock all the way down .

Without modifications and with the original parts that come with the kit the Silkroad coilover will allow you to run the lowest from the setups I've see. The spring rates are a bit higher than most other systems which will help keep you from bottoming out when you're super dumped and they come standard with adjustable sway bare links which are a must if you plan to be dumped and keep your sway bar.

The Megan is the only other kit I've seen that comes close to the Silkroad when it comes to lowering to the max. They don't come with the sway bar links and have slightly softer spring rates and softer shock dampening.

If you lower the height adjustment, and tension the crap out of the springs, I'm sure you can get em pretty low.
