anyone dropped with springs sporting a MS front bumper
just like the title says...if you do please state the rim size, spring, shock, and clearance you have from the bottom of the bumper to the ground.
I know its slot to ask but I'm really thinking about getting a MS body kit with tein a techs with tokico d spec shocks. But I'm worried about the clearance being WAY to close to the ground. Any help is appreciated thanks.

that's nice but (not being rude) it doesn't help me out much. It would if I knew his suspension set up and rim size, even though they look like 18's

You have nothing to worry about with the Teins.
"Too low" is a matterof opinion.
But if you are asking if anything is going to scrape. . . . . That all depends on the wheels you choose.
That picture will show you what the ground clearance is with 19" wheels. And as Jedi said . . MS springs/MS Struts on that car.
And as for scraping driveways . . .I have a truck that scrapes on a couple driveways in L.A.

LOL guess i was reading to fast and overlooked that part. My concern isn't scraping on driveways but instead on speed bumps. I'm in Florida and well everything is plain down here except for those damn speed bumps. Anyone know If the tein stevhs are lower than the ms springs?

I have s-techs and the front is def a lower drop than the MS spring/shock combo. Search for a thread titled "springs, springs, springs"... it has a complete listing of each springs drop for front and rear.
I'm in the same boat as you also, I have s-techs and will be ordering a MS front and side kit in the coming months so I will see if my drop is to low for me with NJ roads.
