Dunno exactly... no fingergap all around, so I'd guess just shy of a 3" drop. The wheels are TSW Razors, 15x6.

I can clear all but the most lethal speedbumps-- I have to take 'em pretty slow, but there's enough clearance under the lowest point that I don't drag.
Of course, ride quality for the ride height is absolutely awesome. Tein makes a fine product.

Tein SS indeed. The solitary downside to the kit is that for full effect, it really needs to be set up, and set up well-- which means use of a chassis scale. The kit felt pretty good when I initially installed it (just setting the coils to fixed heights), but after corner balancing, it's just awesome.
Some folks say it's too much for a street car, but I don't care. Works too damn good.

Front is set to -2.5º, left and right.
Rear is set to -1.75º, left and right.
Front is toe out 3/16".
Rear is toe 0º.
Uncorrected, the cambers were -3.25º(LF), -3.00º (RF), -2.50 (LR), and -2.25º (RR).
The toe is where it was after the drop-- I like it with that small toe out, and @ $32 a tire, what's it matter?
I can't go any less on the rear camber without fender rubbing under compression, and the front will buff at steering lock with less than 2.5 degrees.
The camber/toe is minor in say Auto-X terms (which I dont' even do) but pretty extreme in street terms.
