All just a matter of opinion. I dislike any vehicle that is lowered (my opinion). They all look like something broke and it needs to be fixed. You want better cornering, look into Thicker sway bars and Strut supports.

Lowering the vehicle... yes with the nice turn ratio of the 200's I bet you will have Fender hitting issues.
You will need to look into adjustable Trailing Arms as well.

possible exhaust banging issues too
