I wouldn't lower it more than 1/2 inch and that is all depending on the streets you drive on.

your insane if you put SLP LT's and lower your car. i scarpe occasionally but at times you see speed bumps were you feel like if you go over like your car is going to bottom out on it. i worry alot when i go into some shopping centers because some have these freakishly large bumps that look like they are going to rip the headers right from under my car.

The reason I didn't buy SLP's is because mine's lowered and they're known for hanging down too far. Great for race, not for street.

I had SLP's and I lowered mine thinking I would be ok. Bad idea! Switched to Kook's and have yet to scrape on anything.
