    Dampers = shock absorbers

    Problem will be the standard dampers have a much longer travel than the rebound of the spring, so if weight comes off the wheels (e.g. over a bump) the spring could fall out or become dislodged. Not to mention it popping the dampers and giving crap rebound rates

    As spud said, nothing wrong with a lowered daily (long as it has dampers to match the springs ):
