Check in your area at the car washes you do have and see if they offer a "hand was" service. This way you don't have tp worry about being lowered and messing anything up. We have about 3-4 in our area that offer the service, and it's only about 25 bucks or so. Pulling for you my friend!! Stay well sir.

Find out if you have a Washtopia in your area, they use a belt that looks like the bathtub no slip stickers and there’s no rails on either side to screw your wheels up. I’m lowered 1 inch with LT’s as well plus a1LE and splitter extension never have a problem with it!!

Apparently it’s currently a Tennessee only thing but I’m sure there is other like them.

Any neighborhood teenagers who'd want to make a few bucks washing your car while you supervise their work?

Be careful what young people you let wash your car! When I was young and was washing my uncle’s Corvette, my friend threw the steel wool pad we used for the wheels into the wash bucket. Cost him a lot of money to get the scratches buffed out.

Most areas have professional hand car washes. Might cost you a bit more than the neighborhood kid but probably a bit safer for your car.
