Question Anyone with at least 1.5" drop + aftermarket sideskirts?

Just wanted to get your thoughts and advice on the topic.

I currently have Volk 19" le37's and the car is lowered ~ 1.5" with espelir springs. Am I going to have any problems with say speed bumps, tables, etc if I end up getting say Nismo side skirts for example? I mean I obviously take driveways and any kind of humps very careful, but I just wanted to get an idea of what it would be like with sideskirts and a drop of 1.5" or more.

Thanks in advance

it's a pain in the ***. driveways, speedbumps, etc will all cause you problems. it's all about knowing your car and driving up/down at an angle, knowing where you can/can't go ...

for example, there is one very large speed bump in my parking garage at work ... i can't go over it without scraping. but there is a visitor parking area that runs parallel to the speedbump, so i have to cut through that visitor area and back over to the main lane once im past the speed bump. the only problem is ... it's chained off in the morning 1/2 the time. if it's still chained off when i get to work, i get out of my car unhook the chains, and drive through (usually pissing off the 5-6 cars that are behind me).

i have never bottomed out on my car. the front and sides are about 3-4" from the ground.
