all drpends on how big the speeds bumps are in yer area. My front splitter on a 60mm drop ia about 3" off the ground and I'm constantly scrapuing it - makes an amazing sound in multoistorey carparks on the ramps! Its worse when you go slow gos is grates and scrapes!!! lol

You will probably have some probs - best thing to do is take the speed bump at an angle or avoid it altogether.

Just do it anyway!

Get some planks of wood in car to make the angle of the speed bump lower.

or;

Get hydrolic suspension/air-bags.

Don't lower the car until after you've fitted the wheels, so you can see how much space you'll have. Won't be too much of a problem. It depends on how fast you take the speed bumps, and how stiff the suspension is too.
