I am of the opinion that any deductible below 1000 and you are throwing money away.
Insurance is intended for major events. The extra 500-750 you may get will be eaten up in a years time in premiums.
I would spend the additional premium dollars on getting a personal liability policy or even stated value policy for modded cars.

I did switch from another company and combined my auto with my already existing home, personal liability policies so you are probably correct that a portion of that savings was due more to multi-line discount than just increasing the deductible.
Either way, my wife and I have never had an accident in 20 yrs and if the difference is even 50-100 a year, it adds up on 5 vehicles.
Just depends on your personal situation.

In Texas.
At 43, married, carrying full coverage with a $500 deductible on both my '12 Mustang and my wife's '05 Camry, both of us insured on both cars costs about $140 per month.
It would be cheaper but I have less than a perfect driving record. Part my fault, and 2 wrecks that were the other drivers fault.

I think that is the key right there. There are so many variables at work beyond the deductible that who knows. I'm also State Farm, 4 cars, a motorcycle, house, rental house, and an umbrella policy and when they ran the #s, it ended up not being worth the risk. A single incident was going to cost more than what the lower premiums was going to save me many times over.

Insurance companies tend to screw us over here in the Detroit area so that may be the main variable. If I didn't live in one of the better parts of the area, it'd be even worse.
