Default Rear spring talk

I want to sit my fender as low as possible to my tire. I'm not putting any lights on the fender so wiring clearance isn't going to be and issue. Does any one no the compressed height of the progressive 11" shocks?

Thanks bud. About to start and finish my build. I got my other project out the way now it's time to get back to my bike. It's going to be pretty darn sweat. Replacing alot of chrome with powder coated parts. But the stuff I do want to leave chrome do you think I should hit it with the scotch brite?

Yeah I should have known that answer. Well I was looking threw the forum before I wanted to ask this question but here it goes. In order to put a cross bone lased wheel on the rear all I need is the right axle bearings correct. I no about the clearance issue. And is that wheel a17x6 or 18x5.5?
