Will I have to drive weird with tanabe GF's? (over speed bumpds etc)

God it's been a while since I had a lowered car, with tanabe's (1.4f 1.2r drop) am I going to have to be careful going over speed bumps and up driveways and stuff? Or is there still enough clearance?

I hate having to be careful

Probably. I have to be careful now, and it is taking a lot more concentration on where i drive, and how I approach some driveways. I don't remember how much we lowered mine, I have the measurements to my wheels arches written down, but it is in the car.

Do you have the appearance package? If you don't, I doubt you have to change your driving habits too much. I say anything more than a 2 inch drop with oem bumper would have some clearance issues. I remember when I had my s techs (1.4 inch drop in front) with the appearance package I never scraped on any speed bumps or driveways, so I think you be fine.
