As'Salam U Alikum Members

I am Owner of Honda City AT 2017 Model.

Pls suggest me how to improve Ground Clearance of my Car. As I am fond of travelling and when ever I am carrying my Friends/Family with luggage in truck, the car hits the bumpy road way too often.

Someone suggested me to use spacers in all 4 tyres which will improve Ground clearance by at-least an Inch.

ATM I m using Stock Euro tyres.

PS: Changing car is not an option right now. Thanks

how about changing tyres to 195-65-15?
i have 2015 model with these and havent faced any scrapping with 5 adults, 1 kid and about full trunk

I suggest not to add spacers. Just drive slowly and carefully over bumps. Honda City has ample clearance unless you are driving it fully loaded on dirt roads. Then only Mehran won't touch. Just drive slowly and cross big bumps sideways.

Yes I guess changing tyres size to 185 or 195 is the only option I got.

I have recently changed to 185s from the original 175s. No difference in mileage noted.
