Dont know about anyone else....But here in central Illinois we got a good 8 inches of snow and I am VERY suprized how my my balt performs in it....AINT NOBODY GONNA HOLD ME DOWN....Hows it working for everyone else???

 

I had an 03 Cavy with the 2.2 motor and it was mint. I never got stuck in the snow once. Also I didn't have snow tires, everybody always asked why I didn't, the cavy is a beast in the snow

 

Up here in Chicago we had some snow fall yesterday..The 'Balt drove right through it with ease.

 

maybe im just bad luck but mine sucks just in the rain, and the little snow we have had here its just about as bad. i have the 15" contentals or w/e (rims not hub caps) and its ****!!!!!! that and this 50-60 mph winds we had here a day or so ago!! man this thing blew around as if it were a kite

 

Yeah...I had the continentals and had the same problem...step up to some better tires.

 

Well on my side of town Strider we got 12. Went to Cub foods and got stuck, but only because I was lowered and got stuck in the center of the car.

My 15" continentals actually handled very well. But I Want rims will some good all season tires for the shitty snow here

 

x2 im in the process of finding some decient tires too cause conetinentals suck ass.

 

I have less CELs. What's up with that? I would expect more with a CAI.

 

We had 10-11 inches here in New Mexico and the 2.2 balt did pretty well. The only problem was that my driveway is uphill and well...I never made it uphill =P. I had to park down by the side of the road.

 

I live in Alaska and I put Nokian Hakepilletta 2's on my car and that thing is a buggy in the snow. It gets around with ease

 

i drove mine all last winter bought snows just in case didnt wanna find out after i hit something it does awesome for a little car alot better than my last one


how did you get 10-11 inches in new mexico?? im in NE and havent seen a flake or hell a frost yet

 

we just got 13inches here, and havent gotten stuck at all. I am very impressed

 

i got the sunfire and your right they are reall good in the snow. i have the 4 speed auto with the TC and in the snow it would come on and stop the tires. i would always start off in 1st gear and i would shift it slowly when the car would get going. and i wouldnt use the breaks to much because the ABS would come on i would down shift the car slowly. any car can be good in the snow if you just take it ez with it. but i did see a 350Z stuck last year and had to get it towed. why he had it on in the snow beats me:

 

My car kicks ass in the snow. Especially with the stock tires. There was a row of 5 cars trying to get up my hill and i went right up it.

 

Get Potenza G009's, I got them after my Continentals and the difference is night and day.

 

lucky you guys... i almost die every time i take my car out in the snow...of course i haven't put on any snow tires yet, which could be the problem

 

I dont have any snow tires either.....Straight stock.

 

i drive a 3350 lb rwd car with fat ass pirelli summer tires...its a bit different lol.

 

Drives like a champ with stock tires and the deep snow here in upper Michigan.

 

to 60 / 40 weigth distribution helps alot

 

My 2.4 SS had the stock P-6's (205/50-17). They worked decently here in Colorado. My wife's Impala had goodyears that SUCKED! I replaced them with Hankook Icebear W300's. Incredible tires! It now drives as good as our old Suzuki XL-7 in 4WD with all-seasons. I was so impressed I went out and got a set for the SS. These tires have quicker turn-in than the P-6's, seem about as quiet, ride a bit better, drive the same in wet or dry and turn the SS into AWD in smow (at least it seems to go as well as most AWDs I've driven). Plus they're cheap. Hankook is really trying to take the US market. The auto crossers are having good luck on their dedicated race tires. It looks like they also beat out the likes of Blizaks for a dedicated winter tire.

 

I'm rolling on stock tires too. I'm going to keep them there until I get rims.

 

Has anybody with a lowered Cobalt driven in the snow yet and if so how'd it do?

 

Well I am sitting here, drunk already, the balt just got jacked up, and I hate michigan.

Nuff said.

Turning the corner into my sub, 12ish MPH, she kept goin straight, and boom nailed the curb bent the spindle.

My emotions =

I just ordered the Traction T/A's from Tirerack. Theyll be here soon. Ill just drive on the spindle for a while. I still have presents to buy. lol.

 

The pursuit is pretty bad in the snow up here, i'm getting some artic alpines over the weekend
