I took the Z to a empty parking lot last night at about 2am before it got real bad. Snow drifting is sick!!! I had to get my friend to help push me back up my driveway tho.

The 370Z is under cover. Snug as a bug in a rug.

Run Flats = crappy handling, period. I would rec the Pilot Sports, Continental DWS, or Bridgestone (forgot the numbers) but they're all listed under "Extreme High Performance All-Season." A little pricey, but totally worth it. Handling is absolutely amazing.
ahaha...you sure it was 50 mph? sounds too good to be true

makes me wonder how my eagle F1 A/S performance tires will do....

but not really willing to pull it out now

Just got back from taking the Jeep out in the deep stuff..we got hit pretty hard here in rockville.... it did really well on normal street tires, I was impressed.. didnt get stuck one time... I saw a bunch of trucks and a few cars stuck though including an H2 LOL (they had people helping though, and were able to get out)

I was VERY impressed with my Pilot Sport A/S plus tires in the snow yesterday. Little bit of slipping but nothing traction control couldnt handle. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for all season tires to put on their stockers. Definitely worth the money.

~14 inches up north here, the new tires I put on my truck are complete win. Drove all my employees home and was looking for people to pull out

I will post pics tomorrow. The snowblower started thank goodness, but the 4-wheeler won't start even after I went out and bought a new battery

It also pretty much sucked that today is one of my busiest days of the year and we made like $500 and then closed up. Today was fun, but expensive and shoveling 350' of driveway twice hurt my feelings a bit too.
