This is more for the suspension guys out there, just a quick question about modifying the height of the struts cause lowering springs just don’t cut it.

Here’s an example…

how about repositioning the bottom mounts by lets say 1" (pic above is exaggerated), but would there be any negative effect by doing something like this? would it negatively affect anything?

Cause it sure seems like a simple way of lowering the car another inch.
