Winter... To drive the Z or not to drive the Z

JDs370Z

You own the Z to drive it...right? Drive it and enjoy it! Personally, I enjoy the strange looks when I'm driving through snow, with Blizzaks on my Plasti-Dipped snow rims, of course. Sure...there is a chance of damage from impacts or corrosion, but drive smart, keep your insurance in check, don't drive if it's too bad, and keep your Z clean.

Winter wheels and tires used = 800 - 1000 dollars
Reliable Winter Beater = 3 to 4k, add taxes and title fees, insurance, maintenance, gas, etc.

Good luck and enjoy!

Get a beater if you care about your z.

Nice! I've got the same wheels and tires as you for winter It all comes down to the individual. Some want to keep their z as pristine as possible, which is totally cool. Some want to just constantly be driving it (like me) Some don't want the hassle of having another car, some don't mind. Neither side is right or wrong, just comes down to the person, their needs, wants, and situation.

This^. I have Blizzaks and they work. I also get to enjoy the car on nice winter days as well...at speed with those Blizzaks. A beater is a great idea as well but the Z is well built and runs better driven. You cant go wrong in either case. Follow your heart and budget.
