you can lower your car and still get over speedhumps alright.
i was thinking 50/40 will be alright, or should i just do 40/40

i'm 60mm all round and my laguna splitter scrapes like a bitch on the worst few humps round my area.
you can ease it over taking the hump at an angle, although this slows you down when you're racing saxos.
60mm is the only way forward tho. if you're going to be lowering for looks and looks alone, don't f*ck about, go 60mm.

60mm is ok, i can get over them easy but with a aftermarket manifold you need to take them slow, or go between the humps.

Your car had an arm amputated?
Mine's down 60 and I can get over most average speed bumps with 3 people in

Down 60ish with a Cordoba Splitter and it scrapes a little over bad speedbumps at 15-20mph. Keep your standard splitter and drop 60mm on et49 wheels and youll be fine

all depends on the speedbump. iv found that on some, if you go over at an angle it helps.

One of my corsa was lowered on -60mm Nova springs and it was fine, just had to go rather slow. It was probably actually lowered about 70mm+
