Default wheel/fenderlining clearance Help

First Post, i just switched my lowering springs to stock hieght and my car sits higher than a truck right now! I put tall springs in the front and short in the rear. I believe they are LS stock springs which are quite similar to 00 SI springs. Any suggestions on how low i can drop the vehicle without damaging the front fenderlining? They are brand new, thats why i raised the vehicle for the time being. . .

Ok, so you had lowering springs and replaced them with stock springs. Because the stock springs were newer. Then your like "wtf! I sit high!" and now your asking how low you can go without messing up the fender liners? Makes little since but depending on your offset of your wheels you can go pretty low. My friend is slammed and he doesnt rub his fender liners unless he turns all the way till the steering bump stop. But his UCA bumps the shock tower alot. But he is also on 13" steelies. lol. I'd say not lower than 2.5" maybe 3".
