I am thinking about buying the maximum motorsports starter box which includes bilsteins, H & R race springs, isolators, and cc plates. I use this car as a daily driver and I somethimes get stuck out in the snow. Will doing this upgrade negatively affect winter handleing or will it improve it? I want to figure out the pros and cons of a stiffer suspension before spending all the money. I also have MM LCA's waiting to be installed.

Thank you

My experience of winter snow and lowered cars is (many years ago) I remember ground clearance being lower makes it more of a sled in the deeper stuff, otherwise there should be no difference from stock.

Yes the tighter suspension will do worse in the snow, definately on start up.


But live with it like i do
