Scraping splash guards on dropped Max's ?

I'm wanting to get new OEM splash guards for my car. the car is lowered - eibach/AGX combo. I currently have the cheap ones that you have to cut and fit onto the car, but they are scraping when i go over speed bumps. will the OEM's do the same thing?

No



At least not with maxspeeds. You have a similar drop.

H&R's and OEM Mud Guards = No scraping at all.

Eibach/Tokico = Some sraping

But it all depends on what kind of bump you come across. I took mine off because of this reason. It doesn't completely rub but just a slight contact w/ bumps or dips.

my scraping sounds like the underbody scraping, except i know its not underbody because i can hear it right outside of my window. So based on you guys, if i get any scraping at all w/the OEM's, it will be very slight and the speed bump/pothole has to be pretty bad, right?

Are Eibachs lower than H&R?

Thanks guys for the feedback

Sprints and AGX here. No scraping, front or rear. Not even on speed bumps.
