How the fuck do you guys drive with the stockies with more than a CM of snow ... had to take the same hills 8 times before climbing it ... and it seems that the stupid TC makes the whole nightmare even worst ...

Yes I don't think anyone has the stock tires on their car now unless it's in the garage haha those who are driving their car have winter tires as far as I know

We don't. LOL.Sport mode works better than full traction control. Winter tires a must.
Bringing my own form of spring. Perrin exhaust goes on next Thursday. Buddy club tails and OFT should be here next week as well.
F@#$ winter!!!!!!!!!

Good luck with the move Andre.
Chris you are over the 2000 Km/month limit! Wait a second. you're having more fun than the rest of us.
I'm thinking June 8 for a cruise/lunch somewhere!

Yeah, get better tires...
I'm also over an inch lower than stock and no issues this winter, but with all the hooning around I think I'll need a new set of tires for next winter.

As much as I love winter driving, bring on spring!!!

Put'er in 6th and rev it up to 7000, may loose some rubber but most of us already have extra sets of stock rims/ tires for sale.

Woo lazy man here since I have AT. Snow button puts it into 2nd so starting off is much easier. And turning traction off for lots of snow for intersections etc is awesome.

Hey, how much do you think I should ask for stock tires? Probably around 7k on them.

After getting my groupbuy shutdown ( http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61875 ) I was just wondering if anyone in the Ottawa area was interested in a Fumoto drain valve so we could combine shipping and save in the end (since the shipping itself is the price of another valve). Let me know !
