Default Lowering springs affect the ESC

Does anyone know that if by lowering a Magnum with say, Eibach springs, would affect the Electronic Stability Control, or whatever it's called?

I thought maybe this ESC is set for a given ride height and that by lowering the height of the vehicle would create some sort of confusion with the system.

Any thoughts?

Lower away, the ESP does not care how low or high the car sits, just that the tires don't slip.

Not aproblem. ESP and traction control both work of engine/drivetrain info, nothing to do with ride height. I just put the Eibach Pro Kit on my Magnum and no problems. I am running 20's right now, driving like normal and not having any issues with tire rub, bottoming out, or front tire rub when turning sharp. It does make the ride a lot firmer needless to say with the stiffer rate springs, but it feels GOOD!! Lower away and enjoy.
