i do slow right down for speed humps, but i really don't have to

the bumpers are no where near them when i go over

a mate has stood and watched while i go over them

also before we lowered it more we went and measured some speedhumps around close to my estate before dropping it this low just to check how low i could go without problems :lol:


no... seriously!! :P

40mm front, 55mm rear

not had anyone in the back for ages, so don't know
if i ever have to have anyone in the back and it starts rubbing they will be straight back out and can walk, doesn't matter who they are :lol:

Looks great, the front will only be rubbing on plastic, which you could cut back if you needed to

:love: looks cool, can you go lower?

rear is wound down as much as it will go, front could go lower, but its now sat how i want it with the arches curved around the top of the tyre
and its still practical becuase i can still get over a speed hump without any worries

Looks great, the front will only be rubbing on plastic, which you could cut back if you needed to

will just raise the front a few mm
