i mentioned lowering my car 60mm to a mechanic and he told me that its not worth doing as you will go through track rod ends every couple of months.
has anyone had this problem as havent come across it yet?

track rod ends? never heard of that one before.
DO IT
you're more likely to go through wheel bearings and shocks - i've never had any troubles
