Default If you use lowering springs there shouldn't be a problem...

what you should be concerned about is the original struts holding up as the magnetic ride component of the struts really have no connection with the drop... just in the force of the drop when it changes it's valving through the change in electric current through the unit.. Since normal OEM struts can handle a little drop, there shouldn't be an problems.

..now what I'd love to see would be nice aftermarket coilovers that would connect to the OEM system.. There are certainly aftermarket systems like this available for trucks and cars.. but it'd be cool to have that OEM look, but even better adjustability and performance.

Default Things are going absolutely normal except...

...she just has a far better stance. No knocking, scraping, rubbing, squeaking, grinding or banging to speak of. It's just a normal ride, but lower. Obviously the closer you are to the ground, the more ambient road noise. Specifically tire noise from these Conti's. I plan to remedy that with a new wheel and tire set up which will include a set of Either Goodyear F1's or Dunlop Sportmax tires. Quiter and way gummier!
