S-techs+winter=good combination????

Hey guys I plan on buying some S-techs this month and save up for some Illuminas and get them in July after my bday cash rolls in. My question is how bad is the driving with Stechs in the winter??? Does it make the car one big snow plow? I live in Mass so we can get some pretty harsh winters out here so any advice is great.

Youll be pretty low, but not a stupid snow plow.

I have a 2" drop and have no problem in the winter. Its the tires that make the biggest difference.

It probably all depends how much snowfall you get. I can't lower my car cause the bottom already drags through the snow in the winter with stock suspension. If your roads are plowed frequently then you'll probably be fine.
