How low can you go before you have any trouble with speed bumps etc

100mm, i can get over speed bumps, country lanes etc etc

will that still be true for me on 15's with lower profile tyres?

i'll be ringing you next week to organise fitting my coilovers as john2modified said they should be with him tomorrow.

My car had the sotck 15's on it and with spax coilovers lowered a supposed 60 all round (more like 45 front and 60 back) it never caught on any speed bump and I hit them at a fair speed a few times when I forgot the car was low.

surprisingly good

ive had problems over some humps....... only because the humps were quite high but short and the front wheels were over and the backs were still on flat ground so the exhaust bracket caught the hump and nearly pulled off my exhaust.......
