yes...
but camber is another thing all together...
you are talking bout clearence issues... so sticking to topic...
It is advisable for least 1 or 2 fingers least...

for 17", one finger front and rear should be able to clear most humps in singapore unless u r toking about those giant ones.

Note: once lowered your speed over hump cannot be the same as on stock...

I cld pass when I was on 2 finger... only place cannot get out was at bugis j... whole bumper almost came off...

Once lowered you have to acknowledge the fact that your car will hav difficulties going over most humps and carparks...

If you cant stand it.. go back to stock.. there's always pros and cons of
having a lowered set up.
