Lowering Kits

I am thinking about getting the GoldLine Lowering kit since it lowers the HHR the most, does anyone have any pros or cons to this setup.

Should note that the 2nd gen GLs aren't as low as the original GL. I've got the 2nd gen and the ride is only a little bit stiffer than stock, and I've never, and doubt will ever, bottom out.

Hey Jay, did I have the 2nd or 3rd gen. Goldlines on Molly 1st? I still have them and am willing to sell them. I love the 1st gen. Goldlines I have on her now. I do have to be carefull of speed bumps and deep pot holes but I would not trade them for anything.
