I would stick with just lower. The upper is a bitch compared to the lower. It also depends on how far you go with other mods (power, driveline, etc). I plan on just having the adjustable lower with my car being lowered and a 1 piecedriveshaft. I hope this will get the job done.

I wouldn't think it would be a problem unless you were rolling over something that was in between your tires. Speedbumps and what not shouldn't be bad given how close the brackets are to the axle.
If I back out of my garage at anything more than a crawl, I scrape my left LCA relocation bracket. Pretty red paint all scraped off....

How on earth do you do that? Does your driveway havereally bad potholes or gaps in it or something?

My property has agravel driveway and the road is verybumpy in and out of my shop...and mine have never scraped. As others have said, thebrackets are right up next to the tires, soany bump that may be present will clear becasue the tires will roll over it too.
