Default Installed cutout now?

Just wondering how far away from the ground the botom of everyones cutouts are? I put mine in, in front of the axle, but it looks to be only 4-5 inches from the ground. I only bottomed out 1 time(only 20 miles) but is that how far everyone elses is?
Thanks

Is the car lowered? Mine isn't quite that close to the ground but it is about 7-8 inches. My car is lowered also. It hasn't bottomed out yet.

well yes, the bilstein kit from slp. When I put it in, on the lift it looked fine. But then when I put the car down it was low, I think I may be able to loosen all the clamps and push it up with a jack, then tighten them.

Why did you put them there? Everyone I have seen puts them just before the muffler. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

what do you mean just before the muffler? I put it in the spot right before the over axle pipe. Right where most put them. There is a space in the floorpan that fits it perfectly.
