if they suck in the rain, well snow aint gonna be fun at all.
maybe find some used snow tires, a pair for the front will get you around just fine. it really comes down to if the threads clear or not, if they pack up you go nowhere fast.
umm you do know he is in a gm snow plow right? lol
Doesn't matter if tires ain't s*it.
AWD cars suck in the snow with the wrong tires.
i know that. was giving scotty a hard time about it. right captain!!!
but yeah idk.. i'll let Bill look into them. Like I said they track just fine they just don't GRIP that well. the potenzas made the asphalt its little b*tch
your tires rated a 7.1 for snow. but being FWD lol yeah i bet you still fight for traction.
coming from a 4x4 truck to the regal, i feel it truly sucks in the snow.
well i really don't have money for tires so i'm just gonna have to grin and bear here.
its not till jan, feb you need to worry really. at least thats the way its here. we used to have lots of snow in dec but not so much any more, nothing that adds up any way.
I looked them up. Drive slow in snow. They aren't as aggressive as I'd want for my own car in winter.

See how the outer edge is basically sealed. And the grooves are just straight through the tire. That IMO isn't likely to shed snow and make room to squeeze it out well. I'd prefer to see some more edges and grooves going sideways like this Hankook

Here's an actual snow tire.. you can see the sideways grooves are much more pronounced

Something that could help you greatly is siping. See if any local places will cut the siping into the tires. Those are little cross cuts that you can pretty much see in that last tire. Helps big time in winter and is usually cheap to have done.
Brando needs to learn winter sliding just like everyone else LoL always fun to have your car going sideways
Winter tires .... Pfft.. I have never looked at those ratings... Good tread = good winter tires... **** I have gone all winter with cords showing..
