Your neighbors around the corner on the other side of Lake Erie where they get a lot more snow might have a different perspective. Maybe I overstated it a bit. Don't get me wrong, I like lowering, less for the look than the handling. We get a little less snow out here, yet I’ve had snow plowing issues. But I would still lower an HHR that I didn’t winter drive. It’s all in what you have to deal with and what your priorities are.
