Certain that it is, a lot of enthusiasts have gone the route of lower springs, and from what I understand, many of them have been satisfied with the end result. However, some purists contend that compatible issues can arise between after market lowering springs, which can have an altogether different "rate" or stiffness from that of the oem ones, and the factory shocks. Namely, a lack of synergy exists between the suspension components simply because the "valving" of oem shock is not designed to handle this increase. Long term symptoms have included suspension "sag", shock failure and poor handling. Few would argue, that a well designed aftermarket coilover system can rule out these concerns. Essentially, manufacturers are able carefully select their valving and spring rates, along with adjustable dampening, to optimize cohesion amongst suspension parts to meet an array of driving conditions.
