my frame rails are about half an inch off the ground and its a pain in the *** everywhere i go. constantly dodging ruts in the road and i dont even go into parking lots where i know theres speed bumps... looks sweet though, gotta pay to play.

slam it... i roll pretty low and havnt had any problems with where i go. just gotta learn to drive it and prevent yourself from getting stuck, or get LSD. and you will never get stuck again.

You shouldn't get stuck if you slide in sideways everywhere you go...

Btw, there are several companies coming out with air cups that are universal on all coilovers. Alittle pricey right now, but someday I will definitely be picking them up for my Tanabe Sus-5's w/TEAS

ah boy.... i really want to, but it is very hard to go in an angle here where i live since somehow there is someone always on the other side preventing you from going in a major angle

my car is WAY lower than yours... and i've never got stuck anywhere.

I think you just need to learn how to drive a lowered car

Sadly im exactly the same, except im about a inch from the ground. i get made fun of all the time because i dont go anyware in the SC unless i know there is no speed bumps or any major bumps ETC.
