Default Stock Wheel Well Gap?

Does anybody know how much space (wheel gap) there is in a stock 98+ Integra GSR? I am thinking about getting some 2.3" lowering springs from Progress. Currently I have coil overs and tokico blues which are slammed to the floor. I like the way it looks except I hate the ride QUALITY. Let me know. Thanks.

Here's my 98 GS-R before lowering. 205/50-15, which really makes the wheel gap huge. :ugh:

(Also checking if attaching jpeg files works....)

it will probably be about the same height as your "slammed" look now

Default here's the after photo

By the way, here's my car after lowering with the Tokico performance package. It's advertised as a 1.5" drop. Again, these are 205/50-15 tires.

Ride quality is probably due to the shocks, not the springs. Whose coilovers do you have?
