Guys with the Eibach lowering kit ... do you have problems with speed bumps? ---

[alwayscode390]

I have the eibach spring kit on my car and it sits about 3 3/4" from the front airdam spoiler peice to the ground.

I just got my car 3 weeks ago and have yet to go over a speed bump in it.

I have purposefully skipped going to places that I KNOW have them, lol ... but I am dreading the day I get to one and cant back out of the situation.

Do you scrape anywhere when going over speed bumps? ( I scrape at angled-up road entrances, and lips when getting into driveways )

Please share your experiences with me so I know what to do if I encounter this ... I know to go over them at an angle , not straight ... and as slow as possible?

What part usually makes contact?

THANKS ---

Not a problem if careful. Cross,enter exit slowly at a 45 deg angle. GTS Bruce

Railroad tracks, driveways, exiting parking lots, you name it-I gotta go at an angle and slooooow.

Speed bumps? I don't even try them anymore, ALMOST got stuck on one once and that was enough for me haha!

What wheels are you guys running? I have 2.75" in the middle and 3.5" at the sides on stock suspension & stock 17's. I'd like to get rid of some wheel gap but with that clearance I can't....

I almost forgot railroad tracks!!!

When you get stuck/rub ... what part of the car is making contact? Is it something underneath, or does the body always touch first? ---

Sometimes front, other times a rocker panel or something underneath.
