Quick question to all that have lowering springs installed on their SHO. How is the ride in the winter? Is the handling better or worse? Do u slide more? How is the stopping power/distance?

Just my opinion as we don't get much snow here but I would thing the only negative affect could be deep snow driving, other than that I wouldn't think there would be much difference.

It doesn't really effect the ride, that said we had a really bad winter last year and the ride height was an issue sometimes. I actually purchased a second set of struts for the winter. This way when I put on my winter tires I toss in the struts and springs a quick alignment and I am good for the winter. Total cost was $300 for additional set. The alignment is only $75.00

Thanks for the info, will definitely take these comments into consideration before purchasing lowering springs.
