Don't hit them perpendicular. Just a little advice from the off-roader crowd.

i drive really really really slow like stopped ontop of the speedbump so that the shocks dont compress at all when i come down on the other side and I still scrape...I even scrape coming in my garage so Im going to need to switch out my springs. Anybody need sportlines?

I try and avoid them at all costs. If I HAVE to, I drive over them REALLY slow at an angle. It sucks because they just put a bunch at the Walmart that I always go to. Bastards! A stop sign would work just fine but nooooo.... You have idiots that run through stop signs.

DO NOT drive straight over them. I learned this driving my car and my 2 buddies lowered s10's. Take them at an angle. People will look at you like your retarded but would you rather have that or your exhuast laying in the road behind you?

I just raise my car up, drive over them, then lower it back down.

yeah just go over them on an angle.. my GT was lowered and I had to take em at like \ angle... my friend who had a 01' V6 that was literally 1" off the ground because of bodykit, and springs had to go over most of em like ---- this, lol... just go very slow also... sometimes you can't avoid it.
