Why a drop isn't for every one.

Man up.

After that happened I bought a new shell, swapped the motor, and the suspension. Back down again.

Mucci is correct, nothing compares to Detroit. My family was there for a few of the NAIAS shows and we even noticed potholes on the effin' runway.

You almost need a more nimble suspension in Detroit, just so you can avoid the craters on the highway at 80 without body rolling out of control.

No matter how low I go, VW's are always going lower so I prefer to drive comfortably over speedbumps.

BTW. 87 e30 your car is ill.

HOLY SHIT!...

Don't even touch that with a 10 foot pole, that shit is toxic!

You mean don't do this?

Ride height doesnt really matter there. You hit a bump at a significant speed, you'll f*ck something up.

I guess I should also mention it cracked my shock tower

My VW had a 3" drop for 3 years in Detroit - where there aren't any truck weight restrictions ( and the city has no money) = the roads are torn the fuck up daily by double trailer trucks carrying factory machinery.

No excuses.

i've never had a big issue.. until i almost got side-swiped.

PA interstates aren't too bad, but i haven't spent much time anywhere else in anything but an suv there.

Ohio is awful especially southern ohio where I live. Already shitty roads + $0 for roads = tons of pot holes.
I do have to say my county has done a decent job keeping up most of the roads, but when there are only 80,000 people in your entire county and its the second largest (land wise) in ohio, there isnt a huge tax base for upkeep.
pot holes + fucked up road on the side of a hill, angled at 30 degrees is FTW.

New york, New jersey roads are downright atrocious. But honestly, if you pay attention and you dont drive your car like you're on a lifelong audition for "Transporter 4", you can manage.

[RickSloan]

seriously you all need to visit PA, you accept hitting the smaller potholes just to avoid the bigger ones. Its a lesser of 2 evils kinda deal.

my e30 is low, my old e30 is low, and my e12 will be balls low ( has completely blow shocks right now and i still mange on these roads) and i have never, ever cracked a pan. Get decent springs and learn how to drive and you should never have to worry about how bad the roads are...
