I was wondering if someone with NFs and stock size wheels can tell me the clearance of the front bumper to the ground and the center of the car to the ground.

I didnt get my yaris yet and want to order all the parts, so when it comes in I can put everything on at once. But my driveway has a hump and I dont want to scrape (yes I need to park in the garage. haha)

You surely won't scrape on nf's. I don't have specs but if people have no problem when it comes to scraping on df's hitting speed bumps and pot holes, I almost guarantee you won't going slow in your driveway.

^i hope so, but my driveway to my garage is pretty mean~ here is a rough guess on the angles if you cut the drive way in half.

But if I have the bump and center of the car height clearance I can make sure its ok.

I'd say measure the bottom of your car to the ground when at these angles. From what I've read, the nf210 lower it a little over an inch in the front and a little more in the back. I'm sure there's many alternatives if for some reason you did come close to scraping.

I would and just see if I can clear after lowering 1.2" or whatever. but I didnt get my car yet so I have nothing measure with.

Even though I read the first post, I have short term memory and forgot you don't have the car. Guess you'll have to wait til someone that has nf to post.

I have NF's,

Centre of the car - You can no longer fit a coke can underneath.
Front bumper to ground - You can fit a can under, but there are underbody panels (splash guards?) that hang lower than your bumper.

On really steep driveways you will scrape your front end with NF's. It has happened to me before :(

Oh, but most times if you do scrape, it will scrape the black underbody plastic panels before it scrapes the underside of your bumper.
