Re: Snow tires

Yeah I hate the people who think they know how to drive in snow when they have little or no experience and end up over a curb or in a ditch. After our first real hit of snow and slush a couple weeks ago I was making my run out to Pep Boys for new wipers (one day too late lol) and I saw this guy in a late 80s Mercury Grand Marquis and he kept mashing on the gas and sliding his rear end all over the road. It was ridiculous. Maybe people think that since the road is slippery they need to apply more pedal pressure to get grip

But more on topic, I still have my 225-40-18s on and I get by just fine. I won't lie, it gets a lil tricky when the slush and muck covers the streets, but as long as I keep a light pedal and a soft clutch I'm fine.
