Off topic a bit, but I drove my lowered 99 Civic Si on summer tires all winter with no major issues. When the snow was deep, I drove the Bronco. Neither got stuck, but going back south in a winter storm with the Si was nearly the most retarded thing I have ever done. I could barely move. Regardless of what anyone says, you DO need 4WD or AWD down there if you want to make it into any driveway. Up here, not so much. I could easily drive a 2WD vehicle year-round up here.
