Lowered on stock bolts front, cut 3 of 4 layers of rubber off stock bolts on rear. My drag radials on there are smaller than stock, the factory 19's are almost at the top of the wheel well. Best pic I had handy for you, but trust me, it is really low on the cut stock bolts.

I used the stock front bolts lowered all the way and WCC bolts rear. Ended up with 1" front and 1.75" rear. It also has the CCW 20X11 with 325/25/20 tires on the rear and no rubbing.
