Well I would say I have some ball, but driving through the winter in the S is more reckless than anything. I've been wanting to get a gc8 with a h6 swap or a new STi to rally with in the winter time. But found her and bought her on a whim and since I don't got a garage to store her in, might as well drive her..lol

Im from WI and I've drivin in that EXACT weather and it is NO FUN! Ive also spun out and ended up in the median on the highway because of snow, and all i did was very slowly accelerated.

Here in ky if we get any snow and it sticks to the road they cancel school. 4-5" of snow and they pretty much close the whole town Down.
I put my car in a ditch last winter at the beginning and ordered snow tires as soon as I got the car home. It didn't hurt it at all thankfully. After putting on snow tires I tried for the rest of the winter to get the car stuck and couldn't. I saw trucks getting stuck going up hill and they'd have to roll back down them. Id just wait safely at the bottom and drive right up it. I'm running 225/60/16 on ap1 wheels. The I
Tires are continental artic max. The tires your running are to expensive, wear out to fast and these preform better. I read winter tire comparisons for 8+ hours before ordering my tires.
