Ya, I wouldn't sweat it.

It would take a lot of weight in the rear to make the springs bottom out I think. Even when moving back and forth from school with the rear completely loaded, I never bottomed out over speed bumps or anything like that.

With the stock sag I ran on the rear bumpstops all the time. Haven't hit them once since going Downey.

Plus I'm carrying over 200 lb of stuff back there, more like 250.
These coils are great.
