However, if your going for a lowrider look I assume you'll be using the standard wheels, or smaller, with very low profile tyres so you could be OK. I'm yet to see a body modded super slammed a la the split scene, but there is plenty of space for air bags under/in a T25!
I think you are mistaken.
I have never sold, nor would I sell anything that low.
I am a mechanic, I know about geometry, with low kits like that you run out of adjustment for the camber, which scrubs tyres.
You will get arch clearance problems, if you don't have bumpstops, or you have larger than standard wheels/tyres.
The lowest I sell is AVO -70mm, which is right at the end of the camber adjustment, and obviosuly going that low is a comprimise, people who want that low want the looks and are quite capable of accepting the ride quality trade off.
People want different things from their van, some people like the standard ride height, some people want it a bit lower and firmer to make it easier to get into, safer under braking and around corners, they want to lower them to reduce buffeting and wandering on the motor way, to this end the -50mm spring set is perfect, and then there are people who want it as low as possible, which is what the -70mm springs will do, but still maintain some ride comfort but be at the end of the camber adjustment and is as low as you can safely go.
-50 to -70mm it is advised that you use shorter dampers or use tieing wire tokeep the springs in their seats at the rear.
