You WILL blow out your shocks prematurely if you lower your car...
Without changing shocks and the ride will be most unpleasent. Your shocks are made to work within a spacific range of motion. Lowering springs will decrease that range and the shock will no longer be effective thus giving you an either rough or "bouncy ride". That's why shock and spring MATCHING is important. The compontents work together to give you the best combination of ride quality and height.

1.5" is to far down to go while retaining the stock sport shocks
If you got Eibach Eurosports/Pro Kit, they drop ya another 10mm roughly. Which is about 1/2 an inch. Some people have gone a full inch after settling.
Christian has the ProKit with the stock sport shocks on his car, so check out his ride height and see if you like it. He hasn't had problems with blowing out shocks.

I have the Eibachs on mine with the OEM sport shocks.
I have had them on for quite a while and I love them. The only problem I have is the right front binds a little due to grit between the spring and the strut bearing. It lowered the car about 1.3" and it handles so much better.
