For everyone who has lowered their Maxima and drive it in th winter (snow on the roads) how has it managed? Did you bottom out on snow piles etc? What kind of drop did you have when you were driving it in the snow? I want to install H&R and drive my car (2k1) in the winter will my clearance still be fine? We get brutal winters here with tons of snow...

I lowered my 93' with eibach in May. So... I don't know about your winter question. BUT this summer there has been nothing but ****ty constructin here and I havent bottomed out at all. You may have to drive a bit slower on hazardous roads but you should be ok.

Just keep good tires on it and I would think you'd be ok.

i hope you dont' have a kit, because when it's snowing real hard your maxima might become a snow plow, (then again it'l cool your radiator alot better j/p) it really depends on how high the snow pile is, but i've seen alot of lowered cars at the lots of ski resorts, so i guess you'll manage, the h&r drop is very minor. but i could be wrong..
