   I would say around 40mm. Anything after that you'll be hitting everything that is a bit uneven.

   as above, 40mm is pretty much it. my mate used to have a lower brace dropped 60mm and it scraped pretty much every speed bump at any speed

   well it didnt scrape normally, but you'd be restricted to where you could and couldnt go...
   
   your call at the end of the day, i'd say a 40mm was max drop though
