Good points made by all, but like some of you have said, you need to look at all points. I lowered my GTP by under inch and it was nightmare. First you have to worry about a camber kit on the A arm and you'll deff need an immed allignment. Second you have to change the bushings on the top plates for "pogo" effect. Better shocks/struts, and in my case b/c the car was long and heavy, I eventally needed to change out the rest of the suspension. The sway bars, end and midlink bushings...long story short! Nightmare.
The first pair of Koni adjustables I put in lasted about 30-35,000 miles, second set of KYB's went in about the same.

my rogue is lowered and has been for over two years now...the only downside of it being a blown front shock... otherwise it looks great and handles just fine

How much rougher is the ride than stock? And how much sportier is the ride?
