Default Lowering C8

I always lower my Corvettes with the stock bolts. Now that the C8 did away with the leaf springs I wonder if it will be easy to lower.

The info from Chevy says they have manually adjustable coil over springs so it looks like there will be some room for lowering. Just not sure how much?

My understanding is that the Z51 package includes adjustable perches which will allow lowering or adjusting corner weighting. IIRC it is not available on the base suspension. There are other threads that have answered this question.
