FYI....I have an extra set of OEM stockes for sale, just waiting for all-season or snow tires to be mounted to them.

I'm selling the wheels cheap!
I'm still debating whether to keep my car or sell it. I'll definitely check w/ you once I make up my mind.

I made it all the way from downtown to 31, driving about ~40 the whole way. Got off the highway and the car became uncontrollable on the unplowed roads. Spun out going less 15mph. There was no way to keep the car going in a straight line so I parked it at a gas station and some friends came to get me. Thanks again D.

so the first real big snowfall last night...and i am very happy with my purchase of those dunlop wintersport m3s. i had no problems whatsoever, and it was actually pretty fun driving home. i never made it past 3rd gear though, since there was so much snow by the time i had left (7pm) and it took more than twice the amount of time to get home. not too bad though...my old roommate took almost 6 times the normal time to get home leaving at 4:30.

I did pretty well heading home late last night. There was an SUV going at least 10MPH slower than me. The roads were fairly well cleared by then, I don't know WHAT his problem was.

Pete, First snow of the year, people always forget how to drive. Hopefully it should make sense to them again soon.

I had fun last night with my Blizzak's...donuts are good for you.
