I was suprised how she did on the crappy snow tires I had. Yokohoma W-Drives. They were way worse in the snow than any of the blizzack variants I have owned in the past. Car is lowered 1.75" as well

It's always a test when you have 1 ft+ on that whole unplowed driveway, especially when you can't see cause of the snow coming over the top of the hood lol

Everybody suggests bags of sand. I had never tried it before so one day when there was a lot I had a thought of Engineuity (haha get it), and threw spare block in the trunk. Good solid 75+ lbs, but didn't notice any difference. Guess you need more weight or something. I do try to fill the car up completely before a big snow though, help add some weight in the rear. They really do just fine with snow tires and some common sense. Driven an M3 every day in Arvada/Golden for the last 6 years.




PS- I totally took a picture in a drive through (My favorite place... The liquor store), but IDK what happened to the picture on my phone.


Next Challenge, your car doing some form of racing.
