Q: Does lowering the car actually improve range or handling?

Lowering the center of gravity sharpens handling by reducing weight transfer in corners, and cutting ride height trims aerodynamic drag, which can help range at highway speed. That combination, better cornering plus lower drag, is exactly why owners lower these cars beyond just the look. The gains are modest but real, and this kit is also the lowering piece inside our full high performance suspension package if you want to go further.
