Snow?

Living in the NE we have to expect snow. I'm bearing down, buying some Blizzacks and hoping the DSC gets me through.

Those of you that have to - how are you preparing? Any tricks?

I heard that you can put sand bags in the trunk to have more traction

I just bought a set of Dunlop WinterSport M3s for the stock rims. If it's a blizzard outside, i just wont be going out. Hopefully, I will already be at the mountain so I wont have to drive those days :-)

well the plan is to find a cover for the rx since i think the mazda one is kinda flashy.

and use the civic to its potential or even sell the civic and get a cheap AWD ride... wish i cud just buy an used WRX

BTW: winter is the only reason i wish i choose the EVO over the RX-8.. other then that im glad i took my deposit back on the EVO and get the 8!
