Coilover drop on your sedan?

I just bought BC Racing BR Coilovers for my 2011 G37 Sedan and was wondering if anyone had any pictures of theirs and how much of a drop they're on.

Any suggested drops are appreciated as well.

Daily driver don't wanna be "slammed" and have to worry too much about pulling in everywhere but want a nice *** stance.

Here's my sedan, not BC coilovers but should give you an idea. I'm about 26" from the fender to the ground. Daily driven at this height even in the winter. A little lower than most AWD sedans but hasn't really given me many problems.

I have Tein Basis CO's as the rear suspension, and they're spun in at maximum height, which is 26 3/4" floor to fender. There might be a couple of threads remaining to really truly be at max height, but 26 3/4" is exactly where I wanted to be.

Here's mine, I'm at zero gap which translates to about 26.25" to the fender arcs. I was a 1/2" lower on some deep drop lowering springs and that wasn't fun at all. At 26.25" it's so much easier to get around all the obstacles that a lowered vehicle will find, and your exhaust will survive much better too!

This is on Tein Basis at 26 3/8 and I'm very happy. Tiny gap but I never run and clear most obstacles without much of an issue. I am considering lower though now that I have an SUV for a daily.
