Lowered in North East

Hi guys. I decided to lower my car and get it done before RICOA.
We all know the North East is tough on lowered cars. I think I can drop an 1-1/2 but worried it maybe to much. What are your thoughts?

Just read a post from Apex that under 1.25 is to low for stock struts. Hmmm

I just lowered my car 1.25 last week and it looks amazing. Already scraped once though but i have full 3" exhaust with cutouts that hang a tad low. Just have to learn how to drive over stuff lol you have a 1LE with a fine tuned suspension from the factory. Ive heard that lowering a 1LE more than an inch may cause problems

I'm lowering my 1"0 all around, will be done July 9th. Been told this should be no issue up here in the NE. Speed bumps are always a concern, but I don't cruise parking lots, LOL

I've been lowered 1" all around since 2011 with no problem . You just have to learn to take the big dips at a slight angle .
