Winter inquiry
 

So I hear that Washington doesn't allow Studded Tires, and they also apply gravel to their roads as apposed to Salt. Is all of this true? If so is there a way to get the state to pay for repairs, such as minor dents and paint chips from the rocks, THEY(the State) allies to the roads?

Here in Oregon I believe it's the same. But what's the difference between chains and studs...

Yep, you can still use studded tires in Washington, during certain times of the year.

I have seen sand applied but not gravel.

Good luck with getting the state to pay for any repairs to your car.

Cool, thanx for the info. I have been in Washington for the last three years, however I was Deployed during the Winter season though so I haven't been able the experience it.

Thanks for serving our country ...... http://www.runemasterstudios.com/gra...images/usa.gif

I agree with @Marchy, good A/S tires is all you need in these parts ..... if you stay out of the mountains.

I bought an actual subaru awd so I can drive around. Don't want to risk rwd in the snow.....

So the brz will be garaged soon.

Well Some of us aren't well off enough to have a second car for such occasions. But one of these days I will be there.

"an actual subaru"

:bellyroll:

I'm not gonna lie, that is true. I did that in my old legacy gt. Yeah, that hit the curb hard, broke the whole suspension on the passenger side. Not pretty.

Remember when driving in ice, drive like a turtle. If you are doing hooligan stuff, do it an an empty parking lot.

Make sure it doesn't have those damn number things first..
