Default Need help with a lowering kit

I had found a 2/4 kit for my '08 qc for $380 shipped, but forgot where. Here's the deal, can't really go much lower because of the Big Horns 27.2in tire. I need tires before long. I can go smaller tires and go lower but can the dealer set this thing up for a smaller tire? What size can I go to to get 3/5? Just trying to see my options.

if you wanna go with a 3/5 you'd prolly have to get either a 45 series tire or maybe even a 40 series tire. something like a 275/45 or 40/20

I haven't been on here in a while, and after I posted this I saw the lowered section. This lowering thing has always been on my mind but now that I need tires before long I may as well go a little lower than 2/4. I will install myself. I just want some prices on a good cheaper kit. I don't need to do 100 around corners, just something for looks. No shocks, I'll get those local.

you can get the tires installed at any tire shop for fairly cheap, and you can install the drop yourself... but i wouldnt go to the "steal"ership for anything!
