if your going down 40mm with stiffened shocks and lowering springs you should be alright, but any lower and if they're the wrong offset then you'l start to get scrubbing, and without stiffened shocks you might get scrubbing when going around a bend hard, or just have general weight in the back when go over a bump or something.
