Will SumoSprings Work in Freezing Temperatures

Question

Question:

timbren rear suspension enhancements system vs sumo spring enhancement. I currently have a heavy duty air ride suspension compressor and am looking into these products to help with heavier trailers to reduce sag and wear on compressor. the sumo spring video said it worked in temperatures down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit . I live in Michigan and pull a snowmobile trailer, so according to video sumo would not work for my environment? thank you

According to my contact in the Engineering department at SuperSprings the correct SumoSpring fit for a 2015 Suburban 1500 would be # SSR-204-40. According to them, the SumoSprings # SSR-204-40 springs will remain functional down to -25º F. Operating in temperatures below that won't harm anything, but the SumoSprings wouldn't be very pliable at those temperatures so the ride quality would suffer to a degree.

I've linked you to a product description video for the # SSR-204-40 SumoSprings.
