If I'm not mistaken, dealer optional TRD Lowering Springs bring a drop of 1 & 1/4 inch. Does this reduce the xB's drivability in winter driving conditions; such conditions as a few inches of fresh snow overnight.

Reason I ask is I plan to use this for plenty of trips to the mountains (cheap gas for 3-4 hr drives), boards on the roof, bunnies in the back. The last thing I need is the embarrassment of getting high centered in the snow. I have found some really good 15" winter tires, so traction shouldn't be much of an issue.

thanks much

 

I wanna know the answer too, philly winters can be brutal, and this will be our first in the trd lowered box

 

Depending on how much snow is on the ground. i high centered myself last winter with the TRD Springs on.

This was on packed snow that was 8-12 inches deep.. If it's fresh packed snow, then anything over 5 inches you will plow with your lower front bumper.
