My friends have started calling me mr plow because everywhere i drive i push a pile of snow with me. nevermind the fact that we got more snow in weyburn than you guys did there. took some pics just to amuse some of you on here. anyone else feel my pain?

i'm not complaining about plowing snow, and i don't mind my daily having some ground clearance (although new springs and shocks are on the to-do list in spring)... i don't run into issues going places with it unlike my other car

4x4 stance is the shit
it allows me to park way out in the parking lot where no lowered car would dare ever go
or anyone else cause its like a 10 minute walk to the school
and the snow doesnt get plowed cause im the only one that ventures into it and there isnt a car for 4 or 5 parking sections

dude you dont see the full story lol the resonator on my car is nearly on ground and my car scrapes on the fucking highway when i hit a bump lol i cant go any lower because i commute. also, this is nearly the lowest drop they make for my car and as it is i cant put people in my back seat because the tires scrape. if the pictures are deceptive i can barely fit 2 fingers in the front.

3 of my fingers is still waay high

you shouldnt be calling anyone 4x4 the way your car sits now, last time i saw it, i could fit my fist in your rear gap Razz

i never brag about my car being low, nor do i consider myself a low-down elitist, but this is full of weaksauce for a "too low" thread; barely 2 fingers, 3 adrian fingers, snow

My car could be used to plow snow with my front spoiler and splitter. But its nto too effectiver, becasue the rear camber is so much that there is so little actualy contact patch. If its too low, park the car during the winter.
But the fact that your resonator scrapes on the highway, I suggest poor fitment..
Being super low is everrated

lol the fitment is fine it was a direct replacement exhaust all the hangers match up and the resonator is about a cm from the floor pan its just big and ya id like to park it but it isnt a lambo and im in college lol dont even have time to raise it back if i wanted to. so as i was saying earlier, winter driving=fail lol
