Hey, going to be getting new springs for my car... just wondering how much I can expect the wheels to move up when going over bumps or whatever. I know it will depend on spring rates etc but yea just roughly...

I'd be more worried about body roll
Depends on what bumps you drive over

Its a piece of string question.......

All the way to the bump stops (and then some depending on how soft they are)
