What size tires are on the wheels?

Ask a local member who has some knowledge on suspension parts, what spring/coilover set-up is currently on your car. If you do have after market parts, someone is likely willing to swap with you at their expense, so no cost to you!

thank you guys for all your input. well yes iam a rookie driver, been driving stick for like 2, 3 weeks. sometimes i do get that 45deg angle but i can't do that all the time since i got incoming traffic sometimes. When i go over a bump i pretty much stop completely then go as low as i can, get on the bump, then let go of the clutch a little and get off. but i don't know why still scrapes the freaking bump. Any driving tips would be appreciate it.

Go slowly at 45 degree angle and who cares about incoming traffic they will wait until you move out the way. Beat patience, and drive slow and stop going 50mph + over speed bumps.

KreativS2K, remember, you have the wrong tire sizes.
