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?

 

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.

 

70F? I hope you didn't mean that...
