Getting around NH in snow?
Seriously, I own a 04' RX8 GT and know how bad it goes in the snow. Does anyone know the best tire to get for it and if there is anything I can do about those 18'' alloy wheels. I really just want to be able to make it to work and back and can't fit another vehicle. Thanks.

You can fit a 17" wheel on with some Blizzak LM-22 or W60s and the car will be a champ in the snow. Been thru 2 winters with mine now and it goes everywhere, I even got ski racks that go on the car. It's great.

I vote Blizzaks too! Work like a champ in the snow, I've tried to kill mine with summer driving too and they just won't die.

Go Blizzak
I've used Blizzaks last 2 years and never gotten stuck. They are not cheap but you can depend on them getting you thru the worst of it.
