The lower the car, the less suspension travel (typically) to absorb impacts. Also, since the travel is often shorter, the compromise is to run stiffer springs to prevent bottoming out. Thus, a stiffer ride.
On the plus side you will notice even sharper handling and roadholding due to a lowering of the vehicles center of gravity.
Everything has a trade off. What do you want to live with?

I can live with bumpiness in the name of tighter handling!!!
Now this is an area I've done ZERO research on and never touched. I will get to reading some about it before I choose a product.
Are there lowering kits that help you lower the oem suspension or do you have to replace parts?
I bet my car will look 5x better. I'll get pics asap guys!
Thanks!!!
EDIT: Hopefully handle better too
