I want to lower mine too but I drive it in the winter. I was wondering if it will still go through a car wash with no problem? Also, here in Michigan we have some mean potholes. I don't want to do this if the car bottoms out. I would love to have that look though.

Car wash? Tell me it's a brushless, touchless car wash because if it is one with brushes then you are slowly destroying your nice shiny paint. [xx(]....If you hit a pothole bad enought to bottom out a lowered PT then it will really be the rim and tire you'll have to worry about as they will be totally screwed. I live in Oregon and dodge potholes. Both of our PT's are lowered with Eibachs, 1.6" front and 2" rear. Both PT's handle much better.
