Default Coils being adjusted tomorrow. How low shall I go?

Just wondering what I should set my ride height at. Slapped my 18's on today (thank you NJ snow) and will be going to a friends shop and dropping the coils a bit more. Right now it is at about a 2 finger gap all around. That isn't flying with me. What I want is ultimately no gap from tire to fender when all is said and done. Maybe a tad higher in the back to give it a little rake. Pics would be lovely.

Non-pro picture according to some.

for that, 24.75-25" sounds like it would work for what you are looking to achieve.

I think you should be ok at the 25 - 25.25 range. I would not go any lower IMO.
