370Z in snow.

Sizzle

I drove through some massive snow storms last winter and the Z was fine. I was kinda bummed to have spent $1200 on snow tires but it was well worth it. The rear end does like to come out but if you back off on the gas, it behaves right away.

If you drive sanely, the Z can handle winter well.

Blizzaks right? Were you running stock wheels as well? Any ride height issues? That's a big fear for my as I'm afraid if snow starts to build up on those two lips in front of the front tires. Do you throw any sand or weight in the rear end of the car?

They were...and because the shop (Belle Tire) didn't have any rims to fit my sport package, I had to dismount the summer rubber and mount the winter rubber on the Rays. The shop took extra care and I didn't suffer any damage to the rims.

I never experienced any issues with ride height. I didn't see any need to put any weight in the trunk and I was fine for traction all winter. I was actually quite suprised (and happy) at how much grip those Blizzaks have in snow. I guess you get what you pay for...

Hey boss thanks for the responses. One more question how was it on a hill in the snow? For the most part here on the island it's flat. However where I work is the highest point. There's some decent hills here and they're one of my major concerns. Thanks again.
