You can go lower than you'd want to go. For sure. They have a few STOCK shocks in their office they can use for you so you don't have to send your own.

I have heard every suspension sucks and every suspension is God's gift to cars. The reason being is 99% of people don't know shit about suspensions.

It's because people have no experience with them. They just believe whatever they read from the internet or from other people. That's why they don't know shit about it.

They only go by what people say. Like if someone said (Example only don't take it personally) if Koni's suck. They're gonna believe that it does. Vice Vera with it being good. And with other brands.

No they don't. But if you have to go lower than what the shock can handle then chances are your going TOO low and messing up your suspension geometry...Also I do belive ours are slightly shorter than stock already to compensate for a drop.
