GTS ground clearance

Are the GTS cars with the aero package have problems with driveways or speed bumps?

If you have problems without the aero package then you will continue with the aero package. From the Suncoast description of the Factory Aerokit Cup Kit for the GTS -

NOTE: Reduces ground clearance and maximum approach angle on gradients.

Yes, any 911 with an aerokit is going to have clearance issues. You learned to live with it and drive at an angle when approaching bumps and curbs.

Phoenix has very abrupt entrances to every damn parking lot for when the monsoons come....I enter at an appropriate angle and rarely scrape and it is only the bottom which is basically unseen that scrapes when it does.

Thanks for the heads up, I do take the entries at an angle just wanted to know if it is possible to live with.

I'm fine with mine, had it for 4.5 years now but it's not a daily driver. I drive it 2-3 times a week to work.
