Default Eibach lowering springs

I am considering a 2” drop front and 3” drop rear. Will this ruin my drivability?

I don't know about drivability but I would sure be concerned with ground contact!

Yup. I lowered mine all the way on the stock bolts, which is maybe 2”. I have to be very careful with speed bumps and similar things. 3” in the rear may result in tires rubbing when the suspension compresses.
