Tip of the day....

Just a tip , 19's and 235 kunho mx are extremly horrible in the snow, for those that want to drive on you summer tires i recomend finding another way of transportantion. Luckly i got home when there was only about a inch of snow but if there was more I would of ben screwed.

Add another one to the list. Falken Azenis ST-115. Did not expect few inches of snow today. Took me few tries to even make it up to my garage.

Kumho Ectsa KH11 on stock 17s = bad idea in a freak snowstorm in the mountains on I-40. 4 inches of snow with summer tires wasn't exactly what I called "fun."

Falken 512's are "fair / poor" in the snow for me. I could drive around but it is no-where near as safe as driving around on all-seasons or with snow tires (optimal).

I have a different opinion on the Falken 512's in the snow.

Not to bust ur bubble but we might have more snow on the way on friday. This time it'll be a little more than yesterday. Take ur rims off until Sunday.

Thank god this is my last year in the Northeast. I'm moving to SC and am going to be a poor college student at the University of SC. I can feel the 50 degree winters.
