winter will be slippery on stock all seasons...especially after 4 auto-x's

i usually put mine on around halloween and take them off at easter (+/-)

winter tires are better than all seasons below 8C (40F)....

i ran winterforce tires last year (185-65-14) and didnt like them that much. i found the car is too light generally.

here is a pic of my setup last year, though


and this year (15" steelies from a cobalt and 185-65-15 hankook ipikes)

Considering i'm coming from a car that had summer performance kumho's that i ran in the winter i think i'll have a lil bit more grip than that lol.
