With a 2" drop, I would expect to scrape/bottom out a good bit. I personally went with a more mild drop because it was recommended that anything beyond 1.5" would result in poorer handling (better than stock but worse than a more mild drop). What ever you do, do not skimp on the struts. I recommend Tokico Illuminas as just about any other lowered Org member would tell you.
