Default Suspension help-recommendations

Ok, I am about to get 18x9.5 Z06's with 275/35/18's and pacesetters with Lane's true duals and I need to beef up the suspension too and lower it... I am looking at getting the SLP 70001A kit cuz its way affordable... or getting the Eibach pro-kit (1.25" drop), bilsteins, phr, lca's etc all seperately. My basic question is will this SLP kit drop it enough to make it fill out the wheel wells or will there still be too much space... The car is a completely stock 2000 SS right now. Any help is much appreciated. I want the basic look of this one attached or within reason for ground clearance...
