However, those new wheels also clean the gap under the fender a little bit(~0.25'').

I hav a five axis body kit, so I do not want to drop too much. Otherwise I may dogleg on my driveway everyday. So I plan to drop it by about 1''.

Because of the bigger wheels, the 1'' drop can clean the fender gap as well as a 1.25'' drop (Actually may looks like a 1.4'' drop). And the front bumper wouldn't be a lot lower than stock, but looks much better.
This is my thinking exactly since I have the 5axis kit also. What springs were you going to go with? I was thinking either swift or hotchkis but not too sure how much they vary in handling.
