Suspension mods are high on my list for my new ride...

For you winter Mustang drivers, how much of a drop can you typically get away with?

Any advice or experiences would be appreciated!

I live in PA and I don't care about weather, I want to be as low as possible. However the Eibach Pro kit or something similar is a modest drop (approx 1.5 inches) and would be manageable up north.

Mine is a DD year long in Buffalo, NY. I was concerned about this as well and decided to just to Roush rear springs. I'm very happy w/ the look and the lower rearend doesn't add to the snow plowing that you would get if you dropped the front as well.

Drop it as low as you want and buy a winter beater.

How low you want to go also depends on what you do with the car after lowering it.

If your goal is improved handling then lowering the car more than an inch will negatively affect suspension geometry and travel. You might not notice this on the street but might if you run your car hard on a road course. There are fixes for this,e.g. front upper strut mounts, ball joint kits and bump steer kits but they of course add to the cost.
