jk Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 not too bad. i'm using dunlop winter sports on my wrx. i tried going through a winter on the original all-weathers and it was no good. too much power and not enough traction - not a good combination.

waflowers Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Snow? What's that? I'm in east coast and it never snows here. Well, I hear it did once about 20 years ago but it melted as it hit the ground. :lol: (See what I mean about East Coast being too general?)

evolutionmovement Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Got 36" of snow here in Beverly about a month ago. I'm surrounded by water so its unusual for me to get as much as the surrounding in-land areas, but no problem after a little shoveling. The people who spin out of control are usually the ones who can't drive. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leondal Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 My car seems to be absolutely unstoppable in the snow. I live in southern vermont, and there are some pretty shady roads out here. I often end up passing all sorts of cars that have given up and pulled over. A lot of 4WD vehicles too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuth678 Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Yeah we got a lot of snow. And with the stock tires on my 04 TS I didn't get the most traction. However, it was fun drifting around every turn ;) I gotta get some GOOD all seasons. Why the hec can't subaru put something good on these cars stock?

SUBE555 Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 I've been asking that question for a while Kuth, probably because they get such a great deal on RE92s and its an overall tire which may improve mileage the slightest bit. I will say I did have fun out on the lake with our K2500 pickup today. Used it as the timing vehicle for ice races (we must have some 14-18" of ice in that bay), and I had to take it out for a couple of fun-runs. I wasn't too far off the rest of the pack, but at probably 5000+ lbs, she isn't the lightest thing. But I did have some respectable times. :D I'll say I went through some massive drifts and didn't get stuck with those nice Yokohama tires we picked out for it from Tire Rack. I had a FUN time. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
