Asking for a friend, lol.
It will NOT affect "drivability at low speeds". However, driving at speeds above 19 mph, WILL negatively affect the following:
Braking time and distance will be increased.
Steering will be compromised.
More stress on the clutch internals.
More wear on the drive belt
Might cause more wear to the engine
Wallet might feel a little lighter
