Well just put the ws70's on at work today and I'm super excited about snow coming. After much research I decided to go with 205/55r16 all the way around. Haven't driven it yet I'm just waiting for lunch to bring it in and do the alignment.

All I can say is NY ice racing here I come! Anyone else running blizzaks wanna do a trip to NY to do some ice racing let me know. I'll take a pic later and possibly post them if anyone is interested.

 

Do you have more info? Ice racing an s2000 sounds so absurd, it's awesome

 

This is the website for the club up there that sounds best for our needs I will be contacting them to find out if it's cool if we run our cars without a roll bar and such.

It's wheel to wheel? S2000 + ice + W2W sounds like a bad combo. I was imagining an autocross style event.

 

Nope wheel to wheel but a no bumping rule is in effect if you bump you're out I've done this in Alaska so fun and there was no contact.

 

Continental ExtremeContact™ DWS all around here, spec sized. Good last winter and this. Chose these in very early 2011 after reading test results showing these in second place by a narrow margin behind a more expensive tire. I decided the increase in price for the number one rated tire was not worth the price since the number one at the time didn't show superiority in snow/ice testing, only in dry conditions. I note that some other tires have rated slightly better in more recent tests than were available to read a year ago.

 

I ran DWS on my STI in the winters and they did great in the snow. You just need to put a couple extra PSI in them because of the soft sidewalls but other than that they are excellent tires for the money especially for the mid-atlantic climate.

 

these tread blocks are so awesome i know im gonna be safe in the snow!!



heres me doing my alignment and dont think im gonna share my alignment specs for winter racing muahahahaha!!!

 

Great, now we will never get snow.

 

Oh no don't blame this on me you jinxed it by saying that lol
