You could get a less of a drop, eibach pro or sportline. Or get a coilover system. It may say a 2 inch drop, but the springs settle lower than that, and get lower when you pile stuff into the car. Hope this helps.

btw, how fast are you going over the speed bumps? Have you tried taking the bumps at an angle rather than straight on?
