Myself and Darkpuppet and a couple others have either the complete SHM kit, or parts of it. I've not had any issues in the snow with the car being lowered. Only thing I find is that the suspension is more taught/heavier duty than the SVT, so when the car is cold, the car rides rough. As in it lets you feel everything possible in the road, and the car bobbles a bit too. Anyways, my car lowered about 1.5" in the front, and 1.75" in the rear. Stance looks awesome, even with stock rims for now, and I've had like no clearance issues at all. Like the others said, leave the coilovers at less than a 2" drop and you'll be good to go, even with an SVT lip or skirt package.

BTW, the easiest way to remove the rear springs on the car is to disconnect ALL of the wishbones/control arms....you'll have more clearance to get the old spring out. Of course I would say you HAVE to get a 4-wheel alignment with any suspension mods.
