Does it even snow up there? We usually get an inch or so every couple of years. I'd just get a tire with good rain-channels. Do they still allow studs in WA? They're outlawing them this winter in OR.

Last winter, stock suspension/common sense/all-seasons w/good rain channels got me through the winter with ease.

Last year it snowed like hell here and radiators froze. It was cold in January. Last winter for me this year till moving to a temperate zone. DC gets snow but not like NE.

Who am I kidding they get maybe 18" a year less.

this last winter it unleashed holy hell on us. we had like 6" and my neighboor totalled her mustang getting up our hill, my jetta didn't have the umph to get up our hill once it had gone down, took me an hour to get it up with some crafty driving.

i'd just like to get another set of 'caps and throw some winter tires on them, just for good measure. so whats a good set?

Exactly!

Almost lost it in the snow last year. ES100's in snow are stupid. Got caught in a blizzard driving home from college though...

Anyways, anyone who actually GETS snow should check out the Group Buy for some excellent tires from Nokian...

you people dont know the meaning of snow. I go to school in the north country of New York, jsut above the Adirondacks. It snows here every other day I'd say, well at least last winter which was one of the worst Im told. I never once got stuck and neither did any of my friends, who dont drive SUV''s like I do. You just need to know how to drive in the winter. Hitting the brakes is your worst enemy. The only time I needed my 4x4 was to get out of snowbacks that maintenance plowed up next to my car when they plowed the parking lots. Just a little common sense and any car can make it through the winter, its just a totally different driving experience

Well If I bought some hakka's I could go 13,000 ft. up a mountain and be in the snow!

Of course you have no power up there anyway, no need to worry about being throttle happy :P

I just won't drive my car the one day of ice and the one day of snow we get. ;)
