depends how low you wanna go, and what ur driving on.. if ur driving on the road, always keep this in mind, the lower you go, the either
a) use harder springs or
b) use heavier WT oil in the shocks(i use this cause.. well.. im used to it)

but some people like driving knowing they can bottom out.. bottoming out sometimes helps if you need to slow down, but it doesnt help when u lose traction and you do a 180 and start going the other way.. lol

i say, experiment, see what you like, and just drive it that way..... for my rustler, i liked to when it bottoms out, cause then i can limit myself on what height jumps and what i can and cant do.. if i wasnt careful, my punishment would be bottoming out
