It depends on where you gonna go. I would say about 2 inch at most. I am local too, and around Irvine you are less likely to scrape, since the humps and bumps at the shooping center entrances are so gentle. After you leave irvine you will pretty much touch every single irregularities on the road, and you will have to be really cautious. A lip will only add to the ordeal.

I have 1 inch drop all around with a lip in front, still scrape once in a while, but at least i am not dinging the header or resonator.

Ah I love Irvine... I used to rent there while I was in school, maybe I'll get rich enough to buy a house there someday. Every road is soooo freaking smooth and the speed limits are like 50, 55... So many excuses to redline!

I miss Irvine
