Verticle Clearance between Vitz Flooring & Road

Verticle clearance between my Corolla Vitz flooring and road level is too small. This results in floor crashes even when one climbs or goes down Karachi speed breakers at 90 degrees quite carefully and cautiously at low speeds.

How could one increase this clearance?

hello

You have 3 options:

1. Change the springs, as harder and longer ones are available (but not recommended)

2. Put 2.5 cm spacers on rear springs which are available easily now

3. Put slightly larger tires (like 185/70/R13) which will increase clearance, but will not work if you commute with heavily loaded vehicle (like CNG or 5 people on board)

Recommended option is 3, which works well in my case as my vehicle mostly is lightly loaded. Otherwise, you can put spacers, probably the best option as they will not harm suspension. Putting harder springs will make ride uncomfortable.
