The Xtreme has the ZQ8 suspension package which includes 1.5" Drop Springs and Leafs, stiffer Bilstein shocks, thicker front and rear sway bar, and tighter ratio steering box.

You will go down 3.5 inches in the back and 2.5 inches in the front, from where you are now. the leafs will bring you down an extra half inch from where you are now, same with the coils up front.

That's what I had on my old X.
You might wanna trim the inside top of the front fender flares, or just let your tires trim the insides for you.

Re: xtremes have a 1.5 drop right?

I de-xtremed mine as well, but I already lowered it. I only have 3 inchs of clearance, so my next step is baggin it. Cause it doesn't look low enough now. lol P.S. I have the kit for sale if anyones interested. Not parting it out though.
