I'll be installing some good snow tires when that season arrives.
On extreme days (snow storms), I think any front wheel drive car will struggle a bit. The car being 1 inch lower will not make that much of a difference between making it through snow or not.
The driving enjoyment I get everyday from this lowered Koup easily outweighs the amount of struggle I may experience if I drive it in a snow storm.
If your area receives a fair amount of snow storms throughout the season and roads are not cleared very quickly, then I understand your concern.
