GeorgeB Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 in the last 2 months speed bumps are all over the place in bucharest . the problem i observed is that is i run over them at 10-12mph (16-20km/h) that is second gear at idle rpm , my tire hit's the plastic undercover of the springs on the front wheels . i get a hhhhaaaasssshhhhtttt sound :-/ sollution run at slower speeds . i know , i'm doing it now . my Q is , do you have the same problem ? i tend to think that the suspension is too soft now :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeB Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 they are hump i guess :-/ they run across the street at a constant height . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garandman Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Try approaching them at an angle and see if that helps. Who Dares Wins スバル Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebpda9 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 look on the platic cover for scrapes, but if the car is at stock height i doubt it would cause any scraping since it requires a whoping 3" of travel to tuck the wheel in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeB Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 yes, the cover has scratches on it. this is so odd . :-/ the wheels are 225 / 45 r17 vredestein wintrac extreme . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebpda9 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 that sucks. maybe some wheel spacers will help, but knowing the condition of the romanian roads that prolly won't solve anything. i know people that broke wheels on a hummer h2 this summer there. i guess shipping my integra to romania this summer is out of the question.

GeorgeB Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 i haven't broke anything on any of my cars so far so it's not that bad . the roads are ok , the speed humps (or bumps) are the killer for me now . i know, run slowly and it should be ok . and it's true .
