:haha: so true I remember driving down Kingsway last year from Victoria to Main... I saw 6 busses stuck. :haha::haha:hahahah

FAIL.

My car is lowered and I drove it around Ottawa for 6 winters on good winter tires. Yes you cannot go out where there has been a huge dump of snow, yet wait a few hours for the plows to clear the streets and you're fine.

For a lowered car that is running more camber, winters are even more important.

those were the first things i got rid of when i had my wrx. absolute crap even in light snow, and i had AWD... don't even get me started about ice :mad:

consider looking at listings in washington state. that's where i found mine (also 18").

scanned from latest consumer reports for those of u looking to buy:

I didn't know your parents were in calgary, :eek: aren't the winters there pretty rough, wheres the jeep?

Lol my dad is throwing a few bags of rice in the back of the Z because 6 cars is not enough to get us around in the winter :rolleyes:

^^ can you make the image larger?
can't read what it says, even after i click on it.

lol I don't think they'd wanna drive to calgary in the cherokee... 12 hours in that thing would kill them :lol plus they're driving aunt and uncle back from calgary.. needed something comfortable

you guys have 6 cars?! lol bought some more since I was last at your place?

so... their 1-3cm prediction of snow was off :thumbsup:

sorry but that's how i got them from another board and i don't know how to fix them :confused:

i had to save them to my computer and them zoom in using a viewer

i tried that, the words were blurry. thx anyways.

winterized.

lips off, greased, lubed, silicone sprayed what i could of the suspension when the wheels were off.

Ballin'

Looks like I know what I'll be doing wednesday

where's the best place to get some winter steely for cheap?

junk yards or cdn tire

Also craigslist. Unfortunately, it's not that easy to find Volvo steelies in RWD offset. Ugh. People and their FWD/AWD bricks these days! :p

steelie power for the TL.

205/16/60 General Altimax Arctics on 16" steelies... (yes i got a set of 4..not just 2)

nooooo...my winter tires are backordered...shit im running summers right now

Mine are going on tomorrow.

You can drive the cherokee if it snows though, it seems like a great beater to me :thumbsup:
Well we just got the astra like 2 weeks ago, and yeah next to the X3 and the astra, everything else is RWD, some lowered... some...smart cars :facepalm:
But yeah the Z is the next best car for winter we have cos the ground clearance is pretty high and it's the only one without Performance tires since I just switched back to the 16's, I'm sure if i wanted a set of 16" winter tires would be pretty affordable too for that car

thats the setup im going with too.

What are you talking about? Maybe because I'm in Australia, everything is the opposite. ;)










(okay okay, I'm not in Australia but thought it was super awesome)

old worn out summers out, new Blizzaks are in..the GS is ready for winter :)

Time attack steelies?
