Alot of people in dropped car??

I just got some progress 2+ inch lowering springs. Umm, I drive like 3-4 people everyday to school. Should I limmit it to less, or is this fine. Will the stiffer spring rate hold out and not sag or am I stupid and 4 people is way too many for the suspension with lowered springs to handle? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Other than that, How do you like your progress springs. I like them if you like a slammed car, everyone says there uneven on a sedan? Is yours even?
