1 inch thats it? I don't even think your tires will tuck.

Depends where you drive. If your roads suck and you drive all over then lowering it a ton isnt a good idea. You can still have good handling and not be super low; being too low actually makes it worse.

I agree with everything you say in this post. However, lowering the car one inch is a rather moderate lowering, not all that severe.
