I've got spring tech springs and gr2's and have been fine so far this winter. Im using the stock 16's with all seasons. There is a decent difference in ride quality.... you do notice bumps alot more, and it does have alittle bounce compared to stock, but it it still acceptable to everyone I've had in the car

lower it for sure it will also give you better handling around corners, not alot but some, if you got wide rims too then you gave yourself a little more handling. just sayin, right now i have low pros on and it just snowed the other day and im driving in it with yokohama tires, they actually are goin very well. now yes ive heard the low pros suck in the snow, but my father desided the use my winter stealies to block something not sure what, then he ran the our 100 HP tractor bucket straight into them and now, you can already guess, there bent, pretty good too. so now im stuck with my low pros, im goin to get the 16" rims stock for winter next year unless i can find a set cheap now.

but i would say lower the bitch, we have terrible roads around hear, especially since they started working on putting ditches alon side the road, and then put pipin under the road and shet. now the road is bumpy as helll, they paved over the shet but its not even, its pennsylvania.

. and i live back a stone drive way and the car will be getting lower this spring.
