Get a good set of winter tires. Perferably studded in the rear at least. Throw a few sand bags in the trunk. And dont go hard on the throttle.

Blizzak WS50's are good snow tires. They impressed the hell out of me with starting and stopping on the ice.

hey i'm from michigan too, and i had to go driving in the ****ty snow today, first time in a v8, and all i can say is WOOOOW was that an experience. seemed like traction control came on every time i put it in first to go, put it in second and wasnt to bad. making turns even at about 5 mph the traction control came on, and i could feel the car drifting, kindof fun actually lol. getting up my driveway was a challenge as well cuz we have a lot of shiz in our garage so i had to really am that sumofabich. but all in all drive really really really really slow and you'll be alright. did i mention just drive REALLY SLOW.

I suggest the widest drag radials you can find and be generous with the throttle. Snow just makes for good times! Be careful ppl and think when you drive! Happy Thanxgiving!
