Just stock. That drive shook me up so much I don't drive it when there will be snow. My Camry handles business when the time comes

I bought a used set of snow tires+rims with 60% tread left for $150...Rims are rusty (going to be plastidipped), but roll true.

You dont have to spend a fortune on snow tires if you're in a bind.

Meh after hearing how much trouble other people I know had getting around in that same blizzard I think I'm just gonna stick with what I've got unless I found a really good deal.... I guess my original post was a bit biased and unfair toward the frs... I guess being as it had been 7 years since I had daily driven anything that wasn't 4x4 or awd I wast a bit spoiled. Turns out while I had no issues out on the roads 90% of the other people 4x4's included had a harder time getting around then I did.

i suppose i'm lucky that i live in the south. we rarely get snow (which i hate that we don't) but i can roll on the summer tires year round (pretty much)

One of the pleasures of Iowa! It's snowing again v.v but atleast this is the white fluffy stuff not the wet crap we got earlier

I picked up a nice set of snows and rims for $350. Need to wait for the right deal. I just saved a little bit of cash each month until november. My car expenses are above average but I sacrifice a night out or two a month so I can own this beast

The only reason I have snow tires is because I still got my stock 1st gen tC wheels with blizzaks. (leftover winter setup)
