my 00 S lowered on ESPELIR springs is always scraping hard on the driveway everytime i exit or leave my gurls house..

the driveway is an ARC kinda thing, it has a huge lump / arc that i have to drive over inorder to enter driveway..

theres no way avoiding it on my S2k.. trust me ive tried EVERY possible angle u can think of..

my old car (95 Turbo Integra which was lowered to literally 1-2 inches off the ground) could clear this arc w/o scratching.. barely hitting my turbo exhaust piping though..


question is everytime my S enters or exits driveway, it scratches / scrapes HARD .. to point where i see that one line underneath my car where jack / stands suppose to go, its kinda bending the little edges out..

wondering is this causing any real damage to my car.. ie frame damage.. anything that will affect its performance or frame..

(my gurls house is being remodeled right now though, and that arc driveway is gettin fixed.. even a stock ass toyota avalon scratches on the driveway if just entering straight in..)

 

Stop pulling in her driveway maybe? Just a suggestion.

 

Park on the street and take a walk. It's healthy and saves you from scrapping your car.

 

I have several friends that I do not pull into their driveways because of clearence.

 

Get a girlfriend with a better driveway.

 

Back up into driveway?

Keep two 2x4s in your trunk and put them down before you drive in?

 

dont think 2x4's would do anything sine its not my front or rear tahts scratching.. its the SIDES the underneath part where jack stands would be..

driveway is an ARC..

and i dont want to park on street cause sometimes i stay over and dont want thieves or anything vandelizing / drunk idiots hitting my car.. (happened before to her mom's old legend)

 

Help her remodel quicker, take a sledgehammer next time and beat that hump to death.

 

finally someone who thinks outside the box

 

you can always park it on the street.
