WHA? Ohh yes it does.
Even on coilovers having a beyond slammed car isnt going to be the best ride.

When going as low as possible, doesnt this also shorten strut travel?
Having no strut travel would result in bad ride quality, and also bottoming out.

Why'd you switch from Megan coils to Skunk 2? How were the Megan coilovers?

you can never be too low. the day you are too low that just means you cant move your car cause your stuck on a bump or in a dip. haha

i think you sold a few sets of coilovers for skunk2 just now, better send a copy of this thread for your part of the sales comission. i will have them one day, seems like the only way to get better shocks is to buy coilovers, since nobody has made anything for us yet but factory type replacments.

thanks for the kindness guys. i got mine from tunerzimage on this site, he gave me BY FAR the best price for skunk2 coilovers. there was a little delay with them being shipped out but john handled it like a pro, he offered a full refund immediatly that i of course refused, then he had someone end up driving to skunk2 to pick them up cause they wouldnt ship them out. excellent service, buy from john at tunerzimage when you are ready.

about the megans: they just werent low enough for my tastes. thats the only negative thing i can say about them. they perform great and are an excellent price, just not low enough for me. i consider them sold cause a member here has put a deposit down already, he has 2 weeks to send the rest of the money, if not, they will be back up for sale.
