ye should be all good but speedbumps will be a pain as my old corsa was 60mm on 16s and that was a pain,but i spose it depends on the area you live in

hi mate mines lowered 60 on 14"s only thing to watch for is the splitter scraping apart from that go over sleeping police men speed bumps diagonally haha and normal ones one wheel on each and youll be fine dont mount the curb if posible tho the slightest touch on the sump means an oil leak haha
