I am struggling with it being as low as it is now. Speedbumps are a problem round my way and I have had to build a long board to fill the dip between the road and my drive every time I go out in her.

I would be raising it an inch if anything!!

Ash - you can drop about 10mm, any more and you start to get issues with suspension travel. Mine ended up 10mm below standard using 500lb front and 650 lb rear springs on Nitron dampers. Lowering with standard spring rates will be a big no no as you can hit the bump stops with the normal ride hight so lowering it will make it worse.
