Man you guys we had a HUUUUUGE snow storm here last Thursday and Friday a good 30cm (nearly 12 inches) fell in a matter of hours. When i got out of work at 7am there was already 20+cm (7.8 inches) on the ground and in the streets also since they hadn't been cleaned. By 11am there was around 30cm (almost 12 inches) of snow on the ground. My car is lowered and i was litteraly scraping the snow as i drove it all pilled up under the front bumber and radiator had to use a stick to break it off (it froze there). I got a good set of Toyo winter tires in November and with those on i NEVER had any trouble whatsoever.
My friend owns a pc store and i went there to chat and stuff... Anyways hes got a pretty long driveway and there wasn't any tracks yet (there was almost 30cm (12 inches) of snow though. As i started into the driveway i got stuck half way (was going 1st gear kinda slow)... Snow was pilling up in front and was as high as the hood and actually starting to come onto it lol. I managed to back up about 8 feet and i put it in 2nd and floored it. When i hit the snow it flew up in a cloud and i couldn't see where i was going lol. Anyways i got out of there pretty easy to my surprise but mostly thanks to the tires.
So this car rocks in snow with good tires
