Hey, I live in North Dakota and it is now november(it blows) so i put my 14in steelies on for the winter(looks like poo now haha.) what i was getting at was i went fom my 17'' to 14''. And yes i know i shouldnt even be driving in in the winter but its all i got. Is there some kind of lift kit that i can get to raise it up just 2 or 3''. or something. any comments would be greatly appreciated. thx

 

Are you currently on stock suspension?

 

yes sir

 

I'm from Alabama, so I've only driven in snow once, but at stock height, your car should be fine in the snow. Its possible I'm totally wrong, though...

 

Believe me it blows, but sometimes its fun. It might be alright at its current hight, but i have to go to work every day on 5 miles of gravel, that is never plowed in the winter, dam them haha. I just wanted to be safe, and was hopeing there was a cheap kit out there that would help

 

When the black people in the south lift their cars to put 86" wheels on them, they put a truck suspension on them... but I don't think that's going to help you out lol.

 

You should be fine at stock height. I never had any problems out of my civic during winter in the mountains of PA (I'm sure ND's winters are harsher than PA's winters, but you know what I mean). Just get a good set of winter tires on the steelies and laugh when you notice the car-shaped trail your undercarriage is making in the snow behind you.

(The Mustang actually isn't terrible in the winter, either... getting the thing moving without breaking traction is an adventure but it's smooth sailing once you're actually moving )

 

Last winter I didn't even raise my car up and I was fine (lowered about 2.5" in the front, 2.25" in the back). We actually had a decent amount of snow last year, too. However, I assume that North Dakota's winters are worse than PA. I think stock height would be fine IMO.
