I know right!!! I was just a kid when I lived there but I do remeber the snow, man there was a lot of it. I kinda miss it hahah I like the snow. I hate that we salt so much here. Packed snow is much better to drive on then slush if you ask me

[rustyfender]

I don't agree that its better to drive on. Certainly easier on the rust though not having salt. They just gravel there now

Thanks!

You can get studdable tires that come without studs from the factory.

And yes the studs help when it's icy. Even in yyc, sections of my neighborhood are like skating rinks with the Chinook and all where it's enough to turn snow into mush then re freeze.

My hakkas on studs... never had issues. I do have them on my beater though.

Hakka are really the best thing out there right now

Yeah, I was considering studs after we had that really bad ice day last week. I live on a bit of a hill, and I could barely make it up with my winter rubber. A van was already stuck, which didn't help.

If your in a fwd and are having trouble getting up a hill. Do it in reverse. The car has better traction like that

Most people can't drive forward properly, you want them to reverse up a hill lol?
