Everyone complains about PA's shitty roads. When I had the mk3 golf lip on the e36 (3in of clearance) I would scrape everything, but since I put my coilovers on, the front bumper is about .5in higher then when I had the lip and surprisingly I don't scrape anywhere that I use too. Pulling in/out of my driveway is the worst, the frame and exhaust tear up the concrete. But I park on the side of the street anyway. Ill turn the coilovers down another 5 or 6 turns and remove the adjusters on the rear once I get my wheels on next week. So that should maybe make me scrape at some points although I pretty much mastered driving low around my area. Its not too bad.

You'll learn to embrace the fact that you scrape everything, and rub, and bottom out on a daily basis. And if your girl doesn't like it, you deserve better. Truth is, it sucks to roll hard. But in anyone on here's opinion it's worth it. I love when people tell me how bad I spark going down some roads on a static drop.

I'm currently at stock height with my E36 and I scrape like shit over the speedbumps at my school. I swear they're not speedbumps, they're practically small buildings.
Can't wait until my coils get in next week and I get lower, it's going to be ridiculous getting out of that parking lot

Gotta pay to play. Break parts? Replace 'em. Every damn day.
i put air on my van only because Just coils isnt low enough, and the air setup i had wasnt low enough after that. so now im redoing it with air on coilovers to go even lower
NEVER low enoughDisclaimer:

Haha... Funny reading this post. My wife needed me to drive out to the airport last night to pick up a friend. Well, he's a pretty big guy, and big guy's don't fit well in my Corrado. With over 200lbs in the car + me, I rub on every single bump on the road pretty much. I can drive pretty well with my wife and daughter in the car and be fine. I need to pick up some different brand tires, as the Toyo's don't stretch for shit.
I need to take a video of how messed up my driveway is, and how it looks when I get in and out of it. I'd love to go lower, but I wouldn't be able to park in the driveay anymore.1995 AMG c36 / dirtbag.
