I'm sure glad i don't live any where near you so i won't have to worry about you sliding down some hill or through a red light into my car. i have the same tires on my car and last winter they were totally useless in the snow and ice and i left it parked when there was snow on the roads

Why the hell would you bump this thread. This thread is possibly the biggest display of stupidity the human race has ever seen.

I had no Problem doing it here in Northern burbs of chicago. But of course I Lived in Upper michigan for the majority of my life, where you get a lot more snow and had to driv 30 miles one way to get to town for work. Just remember to take it easy and don't be stupid.

Haha, it was a joke. Knowing how he drove before I wouldn't have been surprised if he slipped off the road once. He never slipped or anything for 2 winters on the tires. It's all the driver.

Know how that is. Last year it took me 2 hours to get home from school which usually is a 25min drive because people can't drive. I was on my bald falkens starting in 3rd sometimes 4th just so I could get up a hill. Suvs and rwd cars were all spinning going nowhere and the usual crowd who gets stuck and thinks flooring it will work which then put them in oncoming traffic. Traffic was backed up for miles.

Tires make a world of difference

With RE050a Pole Positions, my car wouldnt even MOVE in anything more than a dusting of snow.

With Blizzak REVO1s, I tore through up to a foot of fresh powder!

It didn't work as well as planned. i got stuck in my driveway, trying to pull into it, almost everyday. among other places that were rare. uphill and ice, ur fucked lol. and any large snowfalls ull be fucked and prolly get stuck. maybe not a tow out, but def a push out.

That thing is still running! His sister is driving it now. Currently rusting like a ****. It has been through hell and back and still hangs in. Once they get rid of it I might buy it.

If I remember correctly the transmission in it was replaced before he bought it. So that should last a little awhile longer. It was a solid car.
