How is everybody holding up out here? I couldn't drive the G, since snow was so high it covered my car up to the grille. There have been SO many accidents on the highways... its crazy. Its funny how the news and other public sources say FWD is best in the snow, yet 90% of cars stuck on the road are FWD vehicles. I'll take RWD and limited slip diffs all day long. Or better yet, my AWD. I'll throw up some pics soon...

My G has been buried for about a week or so... I'm digging it out this weekend.

Valentines day is coming up and if I'm not able to get off this damn campus by my own means... I'm about loose it...

Nice pix Joe.

We are getting some everyday but really not much. My old tires were still going good with light throttle in that snow with 4-32 left.

Now I have new tires since yesterday. So far on dry and wet they were really good. I've found a parking lot where they have ot cleaned it and in light snow was good. Not sure if this year I can test it in deep snow.

Dunlop Signature series. I'll take picture of them later. They sticking to the ground well in this weather. Also seems like treads are much deeper then the oem Good Year. Only time will tell how well they wear.

I paid 158 installed. It is good here in Canada. Since we pay more for everything.

Tirerack sells the 130 not include shipping, that stupid hazardious material handling fees and install.

How about 49.5 inches in a matter of 5 days.Maryland was screwed for about 2 of those days and Baltimore city still has streets that are not plowed.The national guard has had to pickup people to get to the hospitals as its been so bad here.
