I would look for more clearance in the front... It's Montreal and you need it. I don't know how many rims my family has bent, but with really low clearance I would be really worried about the front ride height... I found even my stock ride height had me dodging pavement obstacles in Montreal

If you need another way to lower the rear a bit more, contact Ground Control suspension systems (http://www.ground-control-store.com/). They have a custom rear eccentric bolt that will allow you to drop it down a bit more.
