It's totally up to you. You have the ability to lift it with your set up, so if it makes you more comfortable you should do it. I'm sure it would only take a few minutes.

Well if it gets icey out I would be very careful around curbs and stuff. You don't want to slide into them. I am hoping for a mild winter!

Do you have a kit? I had my 4th Gen lowered about 3 inches, or atleast 2.5, w/ no kit, and I was fine. I lived in Colorado Springs, where it can get pretty nasty during the winter, and I never had one problem.

No, I DON'T have a kit on. I was just slammed, and I was fine. A kit would definatly make it more challenging, but not undoable. I knew a lot of kids who rolled w/ their kits on, and w/ a large drop, and they were fine... just take it a bit easier when you're rollin' around.
