You could be in trouble if you hit a bump at speed when your turning or have low fuel. Try and get feedback from others with the SSL and see what they think (im not lowered so my opinion is not really valid for a T).

The ride isnt as hard in the rear and ive found the rear end doesnt feel like its got a locked diff, when taking off turning a corner like it did with the car sitting on the bump stops. (Because there is a gap now it allows the car to 'roll' a little and apply enough pressure on the correct wheel.)
