Agreed. I have WS-50s, they're good in snow.VividDreams said:Blizzaks, i pulled out in 3in of snow, up hill. i was very satisfied. got me where i needed to go....all winter. granted, i dont live in new england, but still.
1. just take your time,
2. turn the TC OFF, if you leave it on, you will loose any momentum you might have. your right foot is smarter than the TC.
3. keep the RPMs low
4. maybe some ballast in the trunk? i had 80 lbs of salt in there, all the way in the back, between the taillights, didnt hurt gas mileage enough to notice and still had some room left between the salt and my sub
5. drive smart
good luck!
wow i could not disagree more. well i guess your tire size may make a difference...last winter i had an 05 audi s4 and they came with those contiextreme contacts(18 in)....right in the owners manuel it said do not use these tires in the snow. the first snow storm with all wheel drive it was like driving on ice skates. i bought the blizzacks and they were unstoppable. had a blizzard, like 2 feet of snow, could not even open my car door, i used the key to open the window from the door, climbed in the window, started her up and pulled right out of my spot and the car was plowed in. And this was in front of my 2 neighbors digging out their ford explorer and tahoe for over an hour. they were so pissed to see me just pull out.langod said:While blizzaks do rock in the snow -- I made it through the snow last year (in new Hampshire) with a set of Continental ContiExtreme Contacts. They have the best snow rating of any high-performance All-season tire I've ever seen. Highly Recmommended.
