im thinking about the idea of doing a whole summer/winter setup, changing to my winter setup say in october
I live in canada, so we have long winters (5 months), now if i get lowering springs (1.5") and sport shocks with a set of 17's on my CRX for my summer setup, its probably gonna really screw me good if i try and put my stock steelies back on for a winter setup? or will it?
would adjustable coilovers be a better option so i can raise for winter, then lower again in spring?
thanx
oh ya, its just my daily driver, i aint doin nothin special with it

first id say get the coilovers, so you have the option. but you should get an alignment whenever you change height. and if youre not worried about weather getting to your rims, i'd keep them on during the winter as well, unless you need to put chains on. cause depending on what tires you choose, they can provide better handling for all conditions.

I say wait til spring to put them on. I rode through winters with lowering springs and I was like a snow plow :)
