I live in Canada and we've had over 7 feet of snow so far this year where I live

I have the springs, sways, and koni shocks along with the stock rubber, I have had no problems whatsoever

Although I did get stuck once by trying to drive in deep snow following a trucks tracks..I got stuck..eheh

Amir: I don't think it would be a a problem as long as you kicked out the wheelwells before you park the car at night so ice doesn't build up inside there...

also deep snow would certainly not be your friend, but on roads that have been plowed at least once you shouldn't have any trouble at all
