kind of off topic, but have you driven your z through the winters here? if so, how did it perform? I am also in pasco, hopefully i see your z around. i am still in my "get me through college" cobalt. looking to get into something a little more exciting next after my wedding

I drove around in the snow last year with some bald rear T1R's. It did not fair well. I was able to get two and from work in less then 2 inches of snow but any more and I was very prone to getting stuck. my car got stuck in it's parking spot for about a week.

having a set of winter wheels+tires will be your best bet if you guys get a lot of snow over there.

going to give it another whirl with some falken fk452's, not that i expect them to fair better, but I only have a few thousand miles on them so at least I have some tread depth to work with this time.

I kept my z in the garage most of last years winter and I'll probably do the same this year. I've heard that the z's don't do too well in the snow since the @$$ end is very light. I have noticed that the z will fish tail really easy with the morning frost that we've
had in the last couple of days. I will not drive my z in the snow unless I have to, I do all
the driving in the winter snow with my yukon.

driving the z in the snow is not hard. I am not knocking you for being a smart man, having a 2nd car and all, but you make it sound a lot more difficult then it really is.

It is not difficult at all, I prefer to drive my other rig because it has 4 wheel drive and because it is my daily driver, and if I ever hit another vehicle or just end up in a ditch ( which hasn't happened yet ) well I much rather be in my yukon. You got to remember that we may be able to control our vehicles but there's a lot of people out there that can't control theirs. Some people may disagree with me, but the z should stay out of harms way at least for the winter.

Tri-shitties is way colder in the winter than here too, lots of ice in the mornings or all day really , so yeah Z's are better left parked!
