if you cant "feel" what your car is doing when your driving then how have you not got into a accident. you feel it drift in the wind, you feel the rear slid if you do a burn out, you feel it hydroplane in the rain. i dont think people understand what you ment. and i dont think people understand that when a tire is the drive and steer tire it has less traction when its doing both.

I'm planning on driving mine year round, I did last year. They are drivable but I won't be putting a snow plow on it anytime soon. My 01 was absolutely useless in snow however. Stuck in an inch of snow. If you have aftermarket wheels, take them off, salt will kill them.
