i've heard RRM say that anything over 2 inches will ruin the shocks .. 1.8 should be okay, but honestly thats a chance ya take with lowering springs.

I had my car slammed nearly 3 inches (couldn't fit a finger between the tire and the wheel well at all) all last summer and my struts are fine. My tires got eaten up by negative camber though.
