Just wondering if anyone who has lowered their R56 Cooper S with the Aero Bodykit is having any clearance issues over speed humps, dips in the road etc?

My Cooper S is already pretty low but I really want to get rid of the massive gaps between the wheels and the body, and am looking at getting a set of Eibach springs but dont want to risk damaging the car.

Thanks for any help

I already have my car rubbing on speed ramps with the standard suspension (at anything more than 20mph..some need less than 15mph to not rub) and the JCW aero kit.

I have so many speed bumps in my estate that both the wee spoilers on the bottom have been worn off ! ...still now I dont get any rubbing at all

I would think it would be terrible if lowered even more... though probably look excellent.
