Again, story of my life. I just had my lowering springs removed because of scraping issues. The inner loop of Houston is no place to drive a lowered car. Even after raising my car, I can not pull out of my driveway front first.

This was my fear of lowering and not going to do it.

I completely agree about H-Town. I would love to have my car lowered, but I do not think it would be possible. I have figured out a way to pull in the driveway at a crazy angle w/o scrapping....thank God. I always back out of the drive & if I was to go front first, then for sure scrapping would happen.
