I read in another forum than you can "lower your car on the stock bolts..It looks great at the bottom of oem settings". Can you lower a C6 without a kit?

Who has done this?

I'm not planning to drop it a long ways, but an inch or less wouldn't hurt.

Lowering is pleasing to the eye - but it does change things - be sure to have the car aligned when you finish.....

I have never been there. I take it that you have very nice roads in your area?
