I have a 96 Accord thats dropped 4 inches in the front and 3.5 in back and I live in New York. This will be the first winter i've had the car lowered, i might raise it back up. I Scrape on a lot of stuff now cause the roads in NY are horrible cause of the winters. Train tracks i have to stop and go real slow in 1st. any kinda bump in the road i have to go slow. I can go over some smaller speed bumps if i go real slow, But i have felt the whole frame of my car scrape on some speedbumps. Also the flange on the exhuast pipes right by the rear axle scrapes on a lot of stuff. The front bumper is all scraped underneath from driveways. I even broke the lexan casing on my front underbody neon tube one day. The ride is bumpy with the stock shocks and struts but im used to it now and its not that bad. Just watch out for any change in the road and take it slow until u know where all the bumps and pot holes are. The car looks hot slammed and i recomend doing it to your car, but be sure to keep ur stock tires for the winter and buy adjustable coilovers so u can raise it up for the winter.
