well im sure you are aware of how bad these cars are already in the snow
and driving a lowered Gs in the snow will only be harder because of the amount of snow we get out here
leave her home

My car is lowered.. and it works fine in the snow. Im in the midwest so you know we get snow However, during the winter i drive on the stock rims w/ blizzak snow tires. That is the ONLY way this car can drive in the snow. Now if ur drivin through a high snowfall, and u have a lowered car....hehehe...good luck

lowered on eibachs with snow tires I'm coasting on the highway in ice storms at 90 w/o issue...in fact w/o factoring in ground clearance (as there clearly is none) I am doing better than SUVs in snow
RWD+SNOW TIRES=OWNAGE!!!!

Your local City will thank you so much one extra plow to move all the snow on the streets . You'll be helping them out in a big way. Even with snow tires this car is no fun in the snow just slip in and sliding all the way.

we're not talkin about dandruff now....we mean actuall precipitation and until you've even seen snow, much less driven in it you cannot talk.....
or maybe explain to me your lack of knowledge considering you dont have snow tires, and probably never owned them in your life
and trust me, the only thing I'm plowing with my car are the haters who think I'm not grabbin traction
