This. Absolutely worthless in snow and not so great even in cold temps. That's why I have a winter beater. The Z isn't a very good year-round car north of the Carolinas or so (IMO).

I daily my Z because I can't afford a winter beater. $1000 bought me stock 18s and Michelin winter/snow tires. I've never gotten stuck, even with what happened last year...except when over 6" of snow of course.

Uh, yeah. They fit perfectly, well as perfect as sunken in, tucked wheels can be. $500 for the wheels used, and the tires weren't that much through my local non-associated dealer.
