PoRco, you alright out there? Couldn't help but think of your posts from yesterday while slipping and sliding to work.

Ha! Yeah I made it just fine the next morning actually. The previous night (the night when I posted) was WAY worse. My car felt like I had ZERO control on it. I guess that instilled enough fear in me to be extra cautious the next day!

Yeap, I was going to cab it to school initially. But I woke up extra early to "try out the road" because I noticed a truck salting the entire of St Laurent road all night. He went up and down like 4-5 times. That gave me some hope.
So I gave it a try at around 7:30am and it was fine. I was able to control the car when the back end slipped occasionally. It was WAY easier than controlling it the previous night. So I drove to school for my exam, parked somewhere safe, and stayed on campus till my second exam in the evening. The entire time I was praying it wouldn't snow for my way back home :P
I gave frisby a call (the one on Industrial) as per your suggestion! And they were great! I JUST got home from my installation. Really friendly and quick. I got the KSI Winter Slalom over the Michelin X-Ice because reviews say the X-Ice seem to slip a lot more and a member on these boards were complaining about it too! (Also the KSI was a bit cheaper)
You guys are awesome btw! I was constantly thinking about the advice you all gave me!
