This is one of those cases where the obvious answer is the simplest one - raise the car. You have to tune your car for the environment it lives in.
plus something that thick would add a bunch of unwanted weight.

those white stockers look pretty nice. Any clearer pics of them on the car? I see volks and springs on your album. What happened to the volks and your not on springs anymore right?

As low as your car is, no matter where you move to, you would run into a scrape situation. Better stay in Philli and raise it up.

I live in Memphis,tn. And the roads around here are terrible. Potholes everywhere. Uneven bridges, just plain shitty city imo. My car is super slammed. And i have 19s with stretched tires. I hit/scrape everything. Haha. Yea it sucks. But i love my stance, so i just deal with it. And park before speed bumps and walk werever. Just the other day i was downtown and literally got stuck on some train tracks. Talk about scary. I ended up backing up and making it somehow. Haha. But yea, screw it man, just scrape.

Heres the real question.... Do you have coilovers now, if so just raise it up?
There are NO springs on the market that dump a car that low... Tell me its not cut springs on stock struts!! Say it ain't so
