Running the S with lowering springs in the winter?
Just bought my 2000 GPW hardtop. I am planning on driving it throughout the winter with a brand new set of WS-60 Blizzak's on the factory wheels. My only problem is the car is lowered on Espliers. Has anyone drove though a Northeast Ohio Winter or anyother winter lowered on Snow tires? I still have the factory springs but I really don't want to put this thing back to factory. Any info will help!!

I see why no one has commented yet...
What kind of information are you looking for? How much snow you will be able to plow with your setup? :stick: |
I am asking has anyone done it....I will not plow snow seeing I only drive the main roads where there might be an inch at most. I am just asking if anyone has done it and how it worked out? Does the lowered stance affect the grip in the snow?
|
as long as it is not up to the bumper, i don't see how it would be any better or worse than regular, just don't try to plow
|
Just keep it tucked in the garage and get another car dont risk the S lol I wouldent if i had one :(
|
Don't drive this car in the snow. For the winter, mine was lowered about an inch and it was fine...but I didn't dare try in the snow.
|
I drove mine in the snow last year. As long as you remember that it's low and rwd and take it easy, you'll be fine.
|
i like in tulsa oklahoma and plan on driving mine all winter so hopefully its not too bad. i have heard it can get scary expecially since i got an ap1 but its all i got so we will see how it works

Definitely need winter tires on the S. Summer tires are completely bricks when it's below 70F.
