Would any of you do this?.....help please......

I would really like to drop my ride with some Comptech springs. The only "problem" is on a day-to-day basis I must drive over 11 speed bumps and 3 railroad crossings (Monday-Friday). So my question is, given these road conditions, would springs be a pain in the ass? Is the ride affected by springs to the degree that I must drive under 5mph to cross the speed bumps. And given these conditions, would you still get the springs? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I live in NYC and have the same concerns.... I'm thinking more about coil overs now instead of Comptech springs.

I don't fly over them, but I don't tiptoe over them either; I just drive at a reasonable speed.

Thanks for the responses. I just wasn't too sure how affected the ride was with springs. But I'm going to get them for sure now.
