Default question about skinnies???

I've got a set of 15x 3.5 inch draglites i want to mount some skinnies on. i was planning on using the plain-old 165/R15 radials meant for small volkswagons and such like i've seen amny other people do. my question is what is the overall height of that tire/wheel combo?

my problem is that i'll probably end up leaving these on for street driving once in awhile and my tranny pan is already DANGEROUSLY low (i've scraped it on speedbumps and such). i don't want to drop the nose of the car any lower than it is now with shorter tires.

if the volkswagon radials aren't 25.66" or higher, what's the cheapest front-runner out there that's big enough to keep my trans off the ground???
