To snub or not to snub, that is the question

Dave, regardless of whether you are snubbed, you should never be shunned.

The snubbers, or bump stops, can cause issues on lowered cars. If the bump stop is too long the suspension can contact it early in it's compression and cause a sudden increase on spring rate. This sharp increase in spring rate coupled with the reduced overall travel is not good for handling. Cut down bump stops can work ok, but the same thing can happen. At the rigtht length they can soften the bottoming of the suspension and not cause handling issues. That's the target I think and also everything I know about them.

Remember, advice is worth exactly what you paid for it.

We cut ours down to just past the metal "nipple" that sits there regardless.  This way if they are set low enough to contact regardless, it just dampens the noise.

Thanks Carey, That's what I was looking for.
