It depends on what size tires you run, i had to roll my rear fenders, i was running 235s on a 9 inch wheel.
The fronts fit fine, i run 225s on a 8 inch wheel.
I think i dropped a good 2 inches, the tires fit inside the fenders, so you cannot fit a finger thru...and that is at the lowest point...which i dont recommend as you WILL bottom the bilsteins out.
I used to drive it daily for about 2 years, initially it was kinda bad, but you will get used to it, just got to watch for the speedbumps, potholes, and railroad tracks.
