Default xB Coilover Options

Sorry, I'm sure this has been covered before but I haven't been able to really find the answers I'm looking for..

I need coilovers that go low, enough to tuck the stockies and put it almost on the ground with a relatively small tire setup. I was looking at the Teins specifically, though am very open to suggestion. Do the Basics and SS both go the same low? They advertise 2.75" max drop, but do they go lower in reality?

Thanks!

HKS and Cusco coilovers go lower than TEINs.

I have TEIN Wagon, and Ken (NCP31) has Cuscos, and Na'im (xB_ey) has HKS and they can go lower than me.

I have the HKS and they go about 4" (I think). I have over 3" drop on close to stock diameter. I still have about 1/2 inch in the back. The front could rest on the ground.

im not quite sure how to read the tables in the bB bible, but it seems to me that the cusco go the lowest for front and rear...but the jcool ones drop most for the front but i dont have the info for the rear.

maybe im not reading these tables right..but for some reason in my bB bible, it shows the drop for hks as not much, although i know that they hks do drop real low.
