Please don’t, I did it to my es330 and the steering pump show me shege, it affected the steering pump and I changed pump more than 5 times. Because of the added higher it kept stretching the pump pipe and damaging it.
My advice is to maneuver slowly and professionally when driving

You need it because manufacturers of these vehicles didn't put the deplorable state of our roads into consideration... If you stay in the city with good roads, what about traveling to your village??

Besides, it's safer to drive an SUV that has huge ground clearance. If you can't afford it ,you can lift your sedan,at least it will reduce the number of times you will visit a panel beater.

The bad road in the state is nothing to write home about. Not to talk of other bad road that load to my house. washing your car this rain season is a waste of time and effort.

The worst part is my bumper and exhaust.

Was considering lifting the car up it it will affect the balance.

I drove carefully with my corolla with factory height, I was just scrapping every speed bump on the road, even covet to my house, I just vex buy bigger tire and lifted it slightly, since then no more scrapping
and no issues so far.

Yes, u can raise your car, if u can be very careful wen speeding; either by changing the tyres to a higher one, or rising the spring.

In my personal opinion buying higher tyres is better, there costly.

Wen u raise your car it violate the technicality behind the weight of the car and amount of air permissible to enter under the car during high speed.

The size of the tyre that comes with the car is perfect for the weight of the car by not allowing plenty air to enter under the car in high speed. Therefore, making it easy to maneuver wen driving

so, wen u raise it the car will become very light in higher speed, therefore, swinging anyhow except wen u are load

With time u will get used to it and take a very good caution wen driving.


Raising it is a better option in our own country, if not for anything, those people wey dey target bumps and stay there, so as to collect money from u.


Ur car will clamp the bumps with ease and u will be able to zoomoff, and that will save u some stress and money

Wish u a goodluck

U dnt have to change the rim, changing the rim and tyre will be costly, just get a bigger tyre, u don't have to disturb urself, go with the car to tyre dealer tell him u need a bigger tyre. U will just place the one u want to buy beside the one in ur car, u will notice a little height increase in the tyre.

So, by the time u replace all the 4, u will realize the car is higher than it was.

My car is Matrix and the rim is that follow come Toyota rim, and I used Tokunbo tyre that time, about 2 years now, no issue.

shiwex:
bad roads and you still went out and voted for APC.

fineboynl:
south east has the worst speed bumps especially Enugu. Speed bumps without a sign post. Speed bumps on express road. Spend bumps on hill so many I can't mention.

Manuella4ace:


So you prefer patching your exhaust frequently abi?

baconline:
Lifting a car reduces the stability especially on high speed
