the drop would be fine, but hurt traction a bit, be sure to get bushing if you lower it for a softer ride and no annoying squaking

well if you lower it alot you'll have to roll the fenders in on the back to clear the wheels

Oh, and if you lower it as much as possible, make sure you know where ALL the pot holes and speed bumps are, just in case.

Leave it at stock height.. Get some drag launch springs from Eibach.. That's what I'm going to do.. Put some 15's on it if you want it lower.
