See my calculations from that post. Note that both the spring height and overall tire diameter is a bit different.

Based on my calculations, the SS 1LE springs alone are lower than the base SS springs by the following:

Front: 0.336" lower
Rear: 0.579" lower

Overall ride height on SS 1LE (considering both wheel/tire combo and springs) is lower than base SS by the following:

Front: 0.828" lower
Rear: 0.766" lower

Therefor on base SS, the GM lowering kit combined with SS 1LE wheel tire package would sit:

Front: 0.44" lower than SS 1LE
Front: 1.27" lower than base SS

Rear: 0.20" lower than SS 1LE
Rear: 0.96" lower than base SS




*********************************
Numbers that went into calcs above:

SS 1LE:
Front wheel diameter: 26.73"
Front ground to top of arch: 27.875"
Rear wheel diameter: 27.20
Rear ground to top of arch: 28.0625"


Base SS:
Front wheel diameter: 27.72"
Front ground to top of arch: 28.70"
Rear wheel diameter: 27.58
Rear ground to top of arch: 28.83"

I didn’t do any measurements, but just from eyeballing differently optioned SS’s, MRC seemed to have higher ride height for some reason. Also, the V6 RS coupe seemed a lot lower than my 2SS w/ MRC.

The 1LE sits a little bit lower, maybe 10-15 mm.
