ahhh yeah i did last year...

 

you missed the point entirely. not surprisingly considering the topic of this thread.

the point is, if its an accident, and they saw your tire marks where you slammed brakes as hard as you could, and were paying attention....its gonna be ALOT different story, to if you hit him in the winter, with your stock SUMMER ONLY tires on...because all you did is slide

and second....
just because people are stupid enough to street race, does not justify your stupidity in ignoring the fact that your tires are unsafe during winter.


if you bought this car and didnt take notice that the tires are summer only, and you live in a winter climate.....thats your own fault.

if you dont have the money to buy the correct safe tires for your car, you should have bought a cheaper car.

cars arent just about the note to the finance company.


To me this is no better than someone saying "oh i only have 1 brake rotor working, but if im a really good driver, ill be ok"

 

I drove through winter last year with a set of completely wasted Falken Ziex tires.

You just gotta know how to drive, it's not so difficult.

Spend a couple weeks up in rural NY, and learn how to drive a car in the snow.

A typical day will leave enough snow so that I'm literally plowing the road with my front bumper, not the greatest sensation, but, hey, what the **** are ya gonna do?

 

It had the turbo in it but it stopped working. Also it's starting to fall apart now that his sister is driving it...

 

you should take your preaching to the street racing threads. We get the point that you are against the idea haha? Theres gonna be thousands of people driving around in the winter without any tread on there tires, so i dont think me not having winter tires is that big of an issue compared to what else is out there on the streets. Again, deep breath mate

 

god help us all.

its the pro winter drivers story again.



Do whatever you want. seems like the motto of the current generation

you kids are unbelievable.
im done.

 

yah that shadow could even take bradsi's car i bet... hehe

 

whts more important, your Car and possibly your safety or 200$. but with that being said i would prob put my money on u to win this bet, Im from canada BTW so dont think tht becuase im from florida i dont kno about winter driving LOL. ya and forgett about tht driveway for the wnter. Ice and that driveway looks like a bad combo.

 

and you have never done anything stupid yourself eh? golley haha, im sorry you all knowing person you!

 

Good Point!

 

As other have said. stupid ******* idea. You are going to kill someone or get killed. I was stuck on stock tires all last winter and it sucked. Your only advantage is being in ohio rather than all these hills here. It isn't worth $200. I got stuck on a hill at 40 and had to hit 60 on the snow just to get up. I barely had control. I was fish tailing at every light. I was sliding backward down hills. Skill only saves your ass from death when those things happen. It sure as hell isn't going to keep it from losing control and likely hurting others.

 

I have those!

 

brad stfu haha if you were that against it, you would cancel the bet and let me get winter tires

 

Trying to get you to get winter tires! And I want to install them ha.

 

I did fine last winter here in PA. But I only drove it twice in the snow. Once because my beater took a ****. Twice would be the time when my friend ran out of gas with his snow mobile. Damn, and I had to help him I'm his best friend. Had to happen same time my beater took a crap Good luck! This year she goes in the garage for winter

 

whats your beater this year?

 

1. Firestone tires blow.
2. You will be fine.
3. Share some gps?

I drove a mustang all winter in Utah. I spun out a whole lot, but no crashes, just plain ol fun. You will be more then fine.

 

i did it last winter, its hard but if you are a good driver it can be done. Good luck

 

stock tires on the 06 same as 07?

 

that driveway is gunna screw ya . I'd say you lost a couple hundred bucks

 

i went all last winter with stock bald pirellis

 

youll be fine... i used my bald stockers last winter.. i made it through without any problems

 

all of a sudden everybody is a pro driver, and everyone drives in the snow on bald summer tires. talk about a bunch of winners.

 

throw some chains on that bitch

 

haha nice..
