Winter Time

So winter is coming up, and I was wondering do you guys take your body kits, and lowering springs off? I want to lower my car with sprints but I live in Canada where winter is kind of bad at times. Would it be better to wait until spring, or it doesn't really make a difference?

im in the same situation as you.
im gonna wait til next spring or summer, whenever i finish this year of university.
im waiting for 2 reasons:
1) don't have money now
2) lowering and snow don't mix

you won't enjoy it in the snow, i recommend you wait, then appreciate the drop in the spring

Depends on how much snow accumulation you get typically. In Toronto where I am, the snow melts realatively quickly. I dropped with Progress springs 1.7" front/1.5" rear. This'll be my first winter with the set-up though not expecting major problems. btw, I have no aero kit.
