Running firestone destination LE’s in my 2wd f150, with about 50 percent tread. Not as good as new, but ok I suppose for this winter. I put 400# of sand in the bed, that helps things out. Just gotta get a couple pieces of wood so that it stays put. ---

ABS was on so long I was starting to think about opening the door and dragging my foot. I almost spit my pop out. I am starting to get use RWD with DSC helping me out. Bimmer is rocking Copper Weathermasters from Reids 205/55/16 on Black steelies… Steelies are so hideous! I would like to get one of these two rims for winter ([Sport Edition F6](http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/sportedition/swap/se_f6_ci3_l.jpg) or [ASA JH3](http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/asa/swap/asa_jh3_ci3_l.jpg)) but rather get H&R Sport springs and tint first for car. ---

winter tires are overrated. Here’s what always happens: we get big winter storm. all of buffalo runs out to get snow tires. it stays 40 degrees for the rest of the winter. the end. :bloated: ---

Agreed, if you have narrow little all seasons. I never found a need for snows when I drove little FWD cars, or even my old RWD Ranger. But the GTO has some 245/45/17’s on it and it simply will not stop or go. Going about 25 mph I had to plan my stop sign stops a good 300 feet ahead. It’s an uncomfortable feeling having your foot planted on the brakes, ABS pumping away, and having almost no deceleration happening. The wide tires just keep sliding along on top of the snow/ice mix. Since I know it’s going to happen I can plan ahead, but if some other driver does something in front of me it’s going to get real interesting real fast. ---

I am awaiting info on some HAKKAPELIITTAT (singular HAKKAPELIITTA). I need four studded, finnish snow warriors. As far as snowflakes goes, they will “Cut them down”. For definition click here:) : [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hakkapeliitta](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hakkapeliitta) ---

Yeah I could definitely understand why you would want em in your situation. But this is the reason why i have a little 4 banger with hockey puck all seasons on it. I change the oil in it and I drive it :gotme: Leave the fancy tire shit for the summer car :gotme: [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/who-still-hasnt-mounted-snows-yet/21297.md?page=2)
