Dangerously close. Can I get a drop (pics)

actually backing in might work better. you'd think it would scrape but it wouldnt. your not scraping in the dip, your scraping on the incline, so backing up would fix that. just be careful driving out and dont let the momentum make your lip hit while leaving

I may be nuts or something, but I like em without a drop. To me it looks better and obviously less chance of scraping everywhere.

A good set of coil-overs you can go lower and not worry about scraping. Usually they don't have the dip of regular shocks nor the compression. I was low on my RsX with mine and had low front shell. I never scraped now speed bumps and high angles will get you, but they even get the super cars.

Maybe bag the car you can go high and low.
