Any drop over 2" is just asking for trouble on the streets given that you use it daily. For those who live in the snowy states, your car's front end will become a plow during the winter. I have found that a 6" clearance in the front it the absolute minimum you need to clear snow and not scrape anything. That is not to mention the major camber problem that you run into when you drop over 2". If you want show and practicality, then get complete coilover systems. Make it low on a nice sunny day, raise it for bad weather. Remember this, the lower you go, the worse the ride quality and more "scrapability"! Oh yeah, and your CV joints will also go out faster with an extreme drop.
