Haha good point. All I need to do is tighten up my trans lines. I got the new ones put on but I guess I didn't tighten them enough. I will get them tightened tomorrow after class. If you call me you can feel what a 3800 stall feels like

But to help you out with your tires I would seriously just buy winter tires and cheap V6 wheels and then when winter is over you can buy a DR or something more for spirited driving.

Edit: these would be perfect then you could get some cheap snow tires

I've been running around with toyo t1r's and love them, they are a little on the heavier side because of the stiffness of their sidewalls but it has good grip when warm and great when hot.

LOL "I hate to say it but good idea wannabe"...

Gif...I'm definitely in w/ the idea of stock wheels/v6 wheels. One tire that I think is often overlooked is the HANKOOK ICEBEARS. I have those as winter tires and I am VERY pleased w/ them. They are great tires in the snow, and are very reasonably priced. I like to think of them as the poor mans Blizzaks.
