Default Suspension question

Just wondering, you people that have lowered your rides and have shocks, is the ride better than stock?

What if you drop yoru car about 1.5 inches and have stock shocks, will the ride be bouncy?

Thanks.

Most lowering methods decrease shock travel and/or increase spring rate. (There are a few coil over kits designed to retain stock ride when lowered, but I can't remember the brand) The answer to your question is no, the ride will be harsher than stock, and even worse with stock shocks.
