Lowering it will give you more downforce, less air resistance, and perhaps add some stability.

You're right, except without super computers and a wind tunnel to study the aerodynamic qualities of the add-ons, you'll just be guessing... and guessing...
I don't really get the OP's point of asking the question, then trying to justify it by telling everyone to not discuss the safety factor, or the reality factor... Why not just go do it, and report back? I bet 165, aerodynamically limited... but, just a guess.
