Yaris Hatchback Clearance Height
Anyone have problem going over bumper or some area if the yaris hatchback got lowered with eibach spring and front bumper, side skirt installed?
I have eibach spring installed already, but not sure will the yaris hatchback go through bumper easily with additional aftermarket front bumper and side skirt installed. What's everyone experience with this? |

Mine's pretty low and got front + side skirts, I find I can go over most bumps without needing to go at an angle or going really slow. Perfect really!

Mines not lowered but I have trouble with some entrances into parking lots with my front lip. My new rims actually raised the car maybe an inch and now I have no problems. It will probably depend completely on how steep your approach / departure angles are because of the stubby front / rear on the Yaris and how the roads are built in your area. Around here theres huge variation on entrances some being not bad at all and some I dont even try at all.

the yaris will fare better than the great majority of small cars out there when its low! That short hood makes going up inclines a little less scary.

ive scraped my front bumper with stock height, stock 14" wheels. some places i simply avoid going because i hate hearing that "grrrrhgggkkkkkkkk" sound. unfortunately, most of them happen to be fast food joints haha.
