So do those snow wheel weights balance as well as everyone says they do?
I'd freak if I had to drive mine in the snow. I think between the 4.10's making tire spin inevitable and the summer performance tires all around I'd just rock the Jeep.
I've wheeled a stang in the winter before, and its all good if your playing around. if you gotta be somewhere by a certain time.... then

I think with the car being stock that really helps it out in the winter. It get's me exactly where I need to go when I need to get there. Without a dedicated winter tire, the car won't budge 1/2" in the snow, but with the Blizzaks and 150lbs in the trunk, I seldom experience any wheel spin.
The only real problem my GT has encountered is going through about 5" of mushy stuff on the highway. She'll do fine in 3 inches of mucky stuff, dry fluffy stuff or hard packed snow, just can't take on the 5" of the unplowed/over thrown snow lane at 50 mph.
Getting going on a steep off ramp or up my driveway is no big deal...tires make the car...well that and a decent driver.
I love Mustangs and I simply wasn't going to let the winter season prohibit me from driving one, so I felt that an 04 would be a great workhorse to conquer all of the seasons. I figured when I put 200,000 on it, it will be time to move up to a S-197 style car.
BTW, yes you can feel the snow in the rims going down the road LOL. IT also goes to show you just how deep some of the snow I had to get through that day and the old girl made it home without breaking a sweat.

who junks BBS rims?
LOL... A buddy of mine actually picked em' up @ a Honda auto wrecker, so I assume they came in on a wrecked & salvaged Honda.
Thanks... Me too. I have had several, but this 1 is the nicest.I LOVE a clean VW.

Even though is a few years old, that has to be at the top in this thread. Sweet car! I love the 4 series.

Looks like I got my ranger sold, and just bought this little toy for the winter. Of course I had to test the 4x4 in it on some hills too.
'96 Jeep XJ, 4.0/Auto. Looking to pick up a 3in lift and 31's a little later on, might as well put the Mustang on hold. Unpredictable Kentucky weather stumps the hell outta weathermen and makes it difficult to keep a black car clean this time of year.

An expensive one.
Sorry, just saw your post. I can't remember so I'll check tomorrow. I really like the BFG AT's. Have had them on several vehicles before.Similar threads
