Before anyone starts replying, I want to say that this is only a question, hopefully learning new stuff for when I get my new GA. But as curiosity rises, so do the questions.

Would it be dangerous to drive with persay Koni struts and Eibach Springs? Considering it'd be a lower, stiffer suspension setup. I just used those two manufacturing names as examples, but if its gonna cause problems for winter driving, I want to know

I have the eibachs, and kyb's, and if anything, control in the winter has improved. The "wobble" is gone. I live on a huge sand dune, on lake michigan (lots of lake effect) so i definintely drive in snow. I like it dropped better.

Wow, really? I'm surprised. My 94 gives me alot of insecurity, as its felt like its going to stop, but surprisingly just locks up and slides, and I thought, with a stiffer suspension that isn't going to felx easily, wouldn't thta make it slide as well? But its probably gonna stop body roll from goin forward, thus, less weight and momentum pushing forward. I wonder about these nifty things sometimes lol.
