Stupid snow

Mazdaspeed3 + stock tires + snow = suck

 

[mndsm]

Hehehehe. Potenzas=awesome in the summer, fucking dangerous in the winter. I did that all last winter. There's a reason I ride the bus now.

AWD + Snow Tires + Snow & Ice = usual 15 min drive home with 5 min of play time.

 

[DrWebster]

Goddamn that drive sucked. What's normally a 35-minute ride home took 2 hours.

 

[JustROLLIN]

Meh, no biggie for me. Usually a 10-15min drive was today like 20mins.

 

[Workdawg]

My usually 15 minute drive was 45 tonight. Partially my fault for taking 494 and 169 instead of the backroads home. I think I maxed out at 40 on 494 and about 15 on 169.

Ugh.

As for car and tires. Mazda 3 on the stock tires = not so great, but I manage.

mazdaspeed 6 FTW!! :skiing:

 

[Big Nate]

AWD + me= I had fun on the way home. O and its only like 3 mins from my house.

Yeah, I wore out my RSA's in about 18k miles...those tires were scary. The Pilot Exaltos I replaced them with absolutely rock.

Thats odd, I took 169 home and it only took me about 5-10 mins extra on my drive.

I think the tires on mine (an 06) are Toyo Proxes A05. They have about 18k miles of spirited driving. It's a lease and I'm supposed to have 1/8" tread left. It looks like it is getting close to that, I really should check.

I was heading west on 494 to south 169. North looked like it was moving, but south was horrible.

 

[JustROLLIN]

Ahhh...gotcha. I was headed north on 169, so that explains it.

 

[04cobra]

I'm getting steelies and snow tires next year for sure

 

[mndsm]

Heh. I have a Mini, or the bus. I prefer the bus. Let someone else worry about that frozen shit.
