Default Height Drop?

I'm getting new adjustable coilovers and was just wondering how much should I drop my car? I live in Northern Jersey (Jersey City Heights to be exact) and I'm in NYC and Queens at least twice a week... Many potholes to avoid..

how far is your car from the ground (Asking everyone that has had their car dropped)?

I've heard of, but never driven on, the roads of NJ. From what I've heard, it's probably better to be monster truckin' it and avoid those potholes like the plague.

But out here in Cali.. I'm rockin 25" G to F in the front and 25.5" in the back without any real problems.

I am in philly, and we all know they have horrible roads.

I am the same as lazerking. H&R race springs. So 1.9 1.4 i think it is. I have plenty ground clerence. Minus speedbumps. Avoid those everyday.

thank you for the offer but, clearly it shows you need to practice what your "offering"
stick to the question being asked and not your retard opinion on what you think other people should do. 26 posts may show im a newb to the site but not a newb to driving a lowered car.
