i dare someone to drive an sti in the ice... its nearly impossible.

 

I was sliding around a bit in my RWD last night. Not enough to be scary or fun though.

 

STi's Bridgestone RE-070's=ditch in snow Evo's ADvan AO46=ditch in snow All there is to it.....

 

I love the awd<winter shit....that's great.

 

but im white =( but viet at heart

needless to say i couldnt figure out how the hell he was facing out... and he was on the inside of the turn, it blew my mind. musta been someone trying the mad tyte dorifto yo.

 

That's the beauty of AWD..... with max performance summer tires most likely.

 

add Falken Azenis to that list.

It sucks being at the top of the traction food chain 1 season...and at the complete BOTTOM the next.

 

If you can't afford a set of winter wheels and tires, you can't afford an STI or an EVO.

Those nice numbers in the magazines didn't happen on all season rubber. I think that awd in the ice/snow with the wrong tires would be worse than a rear or front wheel drive under the same conditions. The whole car is under torque steer. If you have driven an lsd equipped fwd in the snow you know what I'm talking about. The car just straight up wants to just pull itself off the road under throttle.

 

i nearly killed myself last winter on my stock evo tires. awd is fine and dandy but if your tires don't grip ice/snow/water, then they don't grip. can't break the laws of physics

 

I think the point would be to get the right tire for the situation. Then bad things arn't as likely to happen.
