SSTC springs on an LT?

I'm just wondering what this will do in terms of performance. Also, I'm in Toronto and we get quite a bit of snow up here in the winter months, the car won't turn into a snow plough right? I have the stock LT bumper on with stock LT wheels. Can anybody post a picture of an LT with the SSTC springs on and stock wheels? THanks!

if you get ss tc springs youll only drop MAYBE an inch. and it will handle much better....ish it will be a stiffer ride. and less weight transfer in the corners. not anything amazing

but if you were to get sstc springs and struts then you would have a rather good set up. then you just need sway bars

It will not be a snow plow. I love mine, and I noticed a huge handling improvement. Definitely need swaybars though, because the understeer is much more noticeable now. As for pictures, this is all I have so far:




It's not an LT, but it is a base G5. It was a solid inch, but I have since driven it a bit, and it settled about .25" more than that picture, so about 1.25" total. It's not dramatic, but it certainly helps with some of the massive fender gap and body roll.
