sorry for late response. You will be lowered good in the back with about 2 1/2 inches gap in the front. You shouldn't scrape around town. I love them. But want coil overs next.

Your struts won't last.

99k, your struts are already dead.

You need to replace those before you can install aftermarket springs. If you don't, the springs will finish them off completely.
