Hey what winter tires are you running? Since it hasn't snowed yet i would like to rock the FRS for now with a nice set of steelies and some winter rubber.

I have General Altimax Arctic tires. Good price, great gip, and decent wear.

Theres an awesome deal on tirerack right now. I just bought some Goodyear Winter ice and snow WRT (I read good reviews around the web) 16" with 16" steelies for about $760 including the $110 shipping. Goodyear and tirerack are both offering rebates on this tire, so ill be getting $110 back total bringing the actual cost of my new winter wheels to $650. Free mount and balance too.

I feel fine on my Primacys still and its been pretty close to freezing so far. Still comfortable enough to zip around at 80-90 mph. I did buy snow tires for the season though and i'm definitely throwing them on at first sign of a snow storm.

Bought a set of Blizzaks and I love them in the snow. The stock tires in the snow make the car scary, the Blizzaks make them bearable.

Really want the Michelin PS AS3's but they are so expensive...

Never thought I'd see another stock BRZ I liked better than White, but the Series Blue on Broadway and Lake in White Plains today proved me different. Slick looking car!

Any of you guys passing through Oklahoma? I was passed by a Grey BRZ with NY plates on I-40 Eastbound. Figured I'd check.

SVTSHC · 01-10-2015, 03:33 AM

I wonder who owns the white FRS that's usually parked across the street from my job (Oyster Bay BMW). I'm the guy with the WRB series blue. Anyway, high five!
