Depends on the curb. But you should be fine with Neuspeed Sport Springs with Bilstein Shocks.

Default Hmm 10^-10 of a meter sounds pretty close, you sure?

What if there is a grain of dust on the curb? That is at least a few microns big, will that my front up?

Damn I hate being a physics major.

as long as the debris is less than 1-10 billionth of a meter, you're good

A few microns is what some prof told me. At least I think that is what he told me.
