Default LT's with pro-kit

Hey guys, my search wasn't working right so sorry if this has already been brought up.

I'm planning on lowering my T/A with eibachs pro-kit which will be like 1.5 inches, I also was wanting to get some pacesetter LT headers, would this combo still be ok clearance wise? like will I be ok to roll over a speed bump or up the curb into my garage without crushing the headers, or should I go with some MAC mids? Any help is appreciated.

Youd be fine...the Pacesetters tuck sooo nice. I lost little to no ground clearance and I likewise have the pro-kit springs with a 1.5-2" drop. Best combo you could go with IMO.

Also my Pacesetters have never touched the ground...you would be just as likely to get stuck on your floorboards as you would crushing the headers. I drive up and down my driveway (pretty decent size curb) 5+ times a day and have encountered plenty of speedbumps....hope this helps!

It depends on what you're going to run off of those LTs. 3"? Cats? Duals? I did 3" catted duals and with the pro-kit my clearance is not good. I'll be going back to stock springs as soon as my Koni's get here. Read up in the handling forum.
