Default My SRT sucks ***....

In the snow. I have read about how bad the Gforce tires are but we had 1" of snow here in Pittsburgh, I couldnt make it up the hill to my house. Bizzaks are like $180.00 a piece and I really dont want to get into spacers and all that for 15's.

Anyhow I just wanted to bitch.

Gotta love HiPo tires in the winter. My Neon wasn't that great in the snow to begin with. Too light or something. WHy would you need spacers for the 15's?

yeah they are a lil steep in pirce but are definitely worth it considering that you can use them for several winters (assuming of course that you will only use these tires in the winter only, as i plan to do)

I drove up to see the in-laws and friends in Colorado Springs at Thanksgiving. I hit snow in New Mexico and drove in it for half of NM and in Colorado. I didn't have any problems. Just my input.

I live in the burgh and after the first snow went out and bought the discouint tire direct 15" package with goodforayear ultra snow treads for $450. Bolted right on with 1000mi showing, calipers are real close but clear. Worth every penny, I'm not into paying at least $100/yr for changing boots on the stock wheels. Tires are much cheaper than body shops. My 15 yr old nephew was like "nice car, I dont know about those wheels though" LOL.

That is why my brother parks his SRT-4 when the snow is on the ground. And drive the ol red 97 Ram.
Which really sucks cause that basically means I have to drive the gas sucking HEMI everywhere, or my big conversion DJ Van......YAY!

Try driving through a foot of snow with a lowered neon on some all seasons that don't grip on dry pavement.[:@]
