Lowered Cayenne's (prefer 11's with lowering springs?)

anyone lowered their 11' on springs yet? i am considering a car without the air susp and want to see lowered/hear from experience if it harms the shocks/ride over time.

i have seen many lowered "cars" over the years and they have small amount of travel stock and then lowered a reasonable amount they are fine.. the cayenne i figured has a large amount of travel stock and therefore the springs if lowered only 1.2" like H&R would not mess up the susp?

curious to hear thoughts..

I can't speak to the new models but in my '05 Turbo with air suspension and the TechArt lowering module (allows me to drive in the LOW setting) there is a HUGE difference in ride quality between the stock height and LOW height.

pakundo is on a distinguished road
lowering module is best...you want to drive that car smoothly..and with a press of a button you can raise it up or hence even go off road...lowered cars only looked good when parked/displayed(stiff ride)...but once you're driving it...factory setup is best..(and i mean normal driving)
