I have driving the stocks in a few inches last week and under freezing temps this week in Missouri. Still want to switch them out because ice would have been a major problem. BTW, I was stationed at Offutt, 94-99. Love the Omaha area. Hear Bellevue is growing alot...

I will drive my 8 (with winter rims/tires) some of the time -- drive my 4X4 most of the time -- it is nice to have the option :) Last winter I drove my 8 all the time and never had a problem. Now that it is lowered and has the MSPEED kit I picked up a 4WD to cruise in the winter.

I SWEAR TO GOD BE CAREFUL DRIVING OEM TIRES HERE IN THE SNOW! the snow we had here last week was not a real test- when the ground is frozen and there is snow, these things are dangerous! I don't drive mine much at all in the winter but I also have a truck- RXhusker drove his all last winter with snow tires and was fine, I however got stuck in the first snow last winter and my car sat for four days :( but if for some crazy, psycho, nutty reason you drive on oem tires in the winter and find yourself inevitably stuck- quick tip- you will get more traction driving backwards in snow then forwards!!- just be careful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey new guy :) we should try to get together for a drive- there are a few other locals ready to do another lunch and drive
