I'm optimistic in their inherent knowledge as well, but I'm pessimistic in my hands-on experience playing with the suspension (something they arguably don't do).

And if you're lowered? Fuhghettaboutit. The swaybar links are long... and when you drop the car an inch (with springs), the swaybar ends are static so they simply push the ends of the swaybar "up" however much the springs drop the front. Judging by the pics, there's ~1" clearance.

I hope I'm wrong.
