I just want examples of a car with a 1", 1.5" and 2" drop. I've seen 2" and 1". 2" appears to tuck the tires which I want to completely avoid for now. Does 1.5" tuck the tires? I need to see an example.
Like people said it depends on your tire size! I posted a link with literally thousands of examples with tire sizes. With your stock wheels/tires your not going to tuck anything.

Wheel size is an important aspect to think about

Ah, you're talking about changing the outside diameter of the tire. I forgot that people still do that. No, I always stay within factory outside diameter specification; or at least a close as possible.

Yeah, thanks for that link btw. I wish I had more time to go through it all.
