Anyone out there that lives in city with bad winters drive their IS lowered? if so, how low is your IS?
I'm looking to drop my car on Tiens, and i think its a 1.6" drop.
With winter tires of course!

 

what do you mean by bad weather? im from California so bad weather to me is heavy rain... if that's the case my car is fine in that situation. haha

 

Clearly on my post i am talking about winter. Meaning snow...

 

Where in Ontario do you live? I live in northern ontario and I find my IS250 stock is pretty low for the winter. And then you gotta worry about bad roads and potholes so I wouldnt drop it by much unless you wanna make it a summer car.

 

Live in Brampton, work in Toronto. Toronto roads are horrible. Maybe i should stick with a 1" drop...

 

my bad... like i said in california the winter doesnt mean snow so it's not very clear.

 

if you live where theres snow, please get a vertex kit and drive low, that way you can help others by plowing the road for them think of it as a Club Lexus community service

 

I thought INGS was the plower.

 

ings doesn't have a smooth enough shovel surface like vertex does for a plow. the snow has to move out of the way. i would imagine the ings would just pile up on the lip.


anyways, it might be worth looking into coilovers if you want to lowered in summer and have some clearance in the winter. that's what i'm planning to do.

even with the best snow tires, if your undercarraige can't clear the snow/ice, it's useless.

 

thus a vertex kit

 

I have a Jeep for snow, rain, and going into bad areas.
