So my z is lowered on some eibach springs and my apartment complex just installed new speed bumps which are huge. I now scrape every time.
What would yall do?

 

Lol I swear its always the kids with crappy springs that complain about speed bumps!!


Ive been scraping speed bumps for so many years they dont even phase me anymore.

 

Seems to me like you have 3 options.
1. See if you can take them some way you won't scrape.
2. Invest in air bags (expensive but cool option)
3. Do what DarkCreep did and just become immune to the scraping.

 

Move to another apartment complex that has no speed bumps?

 

move

 

If you go over them REALLY fast, you won't scrape.

On a more serious note, see this: http://www.dmgov.org/departments/eng..._and_humps.pdf

The important part: " National guidelines have set the maximum height of speed humps at three to four inches (although 3.5 inches is now commonly accepted as the maximum height)....

You may have a basis for a complaint to your local code enforcement people.

 

I heard they had to lower some bumps where I live jersey because the people who. Lived there complained I think there a certain height they have to stop on might wanna do some research this would only cost you time I think Gl though

 

Not only did they make some humps taller, they made them WIDER...so wide that they are as wide as the span between front and rear wheels.

Based on that PDF above, ive been seeing Speed bump/hump hybrids May as well just throw curbs in the middle of the street

 

Do this.

 

Agreed. This is what I'd do even if I didn't scrape... I mean honestly, who likes speed bumps anyways.

 

I can't even drive my car to work do to speed tables

 

Have you tried going over them diagonally?

 

my apts they are like 4 inches tall and 2 foot wide... i drag on them all the time

 

sell the car get a honda

 

What is scraping?

What Eibachs are you on?

Can you park somewhere else?

 

Just go back to stock springs. Problem solved.

 

i am going to say he is on the sportline springs... think they are 1.2 drop

 

I complain about potholes. They suck. They are everywhere. Especially in Buffalo, NY.
