I would slam the hell out of it, mine is 2 inches off the ground with a full Omni power set-up. I put it on last night. I am tucking the back wheels.

because you are a trial member. after your 14 days that will go away and you can use everything.

leave it. it looks good the way it is, and you will have to get new shocks if you lower it more. also if you are that low to the ground you are going to scape everwhere you go.

Leave it. Would you even be able to drive anywhere if you lowered it more?
