Well the 2 times a year we get snow here, i have access to 4wd vehicles so it wont move in the snow and if im out in the snow, it will only be driven to either get home or get somewhere where i can park it til it stops snowing and continue driving or park it to get my dad to tow it home in the trailor he has for his shelby. If im out in the snow, i drive no more than 15mph at all times with the 4 way flashers on. So i should be fine. But these are all season tires that will be driven in all 4 seasons.

well in that case then i guess you should be fine. i didnt know how much driveing you do. i wasnt saying fail to using all season tires, but more so of how wide they will be.

on a side note i hate you for having money to be able to blow on a full set of aftermarket wheels and tires just for winter wheels lol my car looks gay now but my exhaust note always brings a smile to my face so i dont have to worry about hating my car.

Well i dont have the money for them right this second, but that is going to be one of my big purchases over the summer. They are going to be my DD wheels seeing that i drive like 12-15k miles a year and the R888's that im putting on the 18" cobras would last me about a year and you dont want to drive on them in sub-40ish weather anyways or they will crack and stuff. So the new wheels, along with new lower control arms and new shocks and struts with front coilovers and i will be done for the year. lol that alone there is going to be like $2500. So that will be it for me til winter break when i work again after summer.

I prefer the 10th anny in staggered, there's not too many around either.. I didn't see the Fr500 style that looks good too.
