Talk to someone, it helps when you're having suicidal thoughts such as these.

Yes.

Calgary snow (much worse than Brampton by the way) with stock wheels and winter tires on them. You're missing out on so much fun.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

I can't read.

I'm hoping we get some actual rain here in SoCal! We need it, and there's no "winter" so it's just fun season for the FR-S!

Fallen43 · 11-03-2013, 10:24 PM

Yes rain and the FRS equals much fun

enjoy it ...

Was just lamenting the same thing over the weekend...time to put the BRZ under cover for winter. Drove by a decent trans-am for sale and stopped to have a peek...wondering if I just need a winter fun car to ease the pain.

all joking aside, if you think that driving this car with stock tires in any kind of snow is a good idea then you are an idiot. at best you are going to destroy the car in an accident, at worst you are going to get yourself or someone else killed.

get winter tires or dont drive it.

more on topic, get winter tires and drive it! so much fun.

two things about putting the twins away for the winter:

1. Mitigate the risk of some idiot sliding into your twin -body work and diminishing resale value.

2. Damage from salt -who's really going to hose the underbody to remove corrosive salt when it's freezing outside? Not everybody has panels or undercoating to protect their baby's belly from chunks or ice, salt, and rust.

I know it's a waste of insurance money (and car payments) paying for a car to sit in the driveway for the next few months but accidents and rust suck.
