No more than 30mm, and even at that you'll want new struts, so I would get a matching set all at once.

I agree with BAN SUVS that the drop shouldn't be more than 2 inches or so. Remember that the lower you drop your car, the less you are able to agressively shift its weight. Depending on your driving style...you may want to keep the height, and center of gravity, closer to stock.

Ummmm..... 30mm=1.2 inches. Any more than that upsets the chassis. See www.spdusa.com for further details.
