Suspension Poll: Lifted, Lowered, or Left Standard Height?

[AZFox]

Do you expect to order one of the kits for lifting or lowering your Slate?

If you change your mind you can change your vote in the poll.

What are your reasons for lifting or lowering?

What do you think the tradeoffs of lifting or lowering will be?

I'd keep it stock. Slate would function as my daily driver around town and to and from work. What I'd lift is my X5 and turn it into a proper overland rig.

I'd lower mine. To me, it looks a little cooler, and the most I'm going to have in it is 10 or 20- 40lb bags of wood pellets. Plus in my head it may get better range due to less wind resistance. It's also going to replace my 2020 Honda Civic, which is my current daily driver, and that has no issues with ground clearance on the mountain roads.

Height is TBD for me. I sat in it yesterday (I'm 5' 11") and the height felt pretty good factory. I'll probably keep this in an open air configuration from April to October and make it my mountain bike hauler, so may lift it and put some off-road tires on it. We'll see.

I like the lowered look in the pic. I think subtle 1 to 1.25" inch drop would be ideal balance of look/ ride quality.
