Snow is that white stuff that sucks- its habitat is in the unfortunate northern states who unlike us aren't enjoying balmy temps in the 70s today.

Here are the pics. Please, dont remind me about California. That where I'm from originally and before this month my idea of snow was a day trip to Tahoe to snowboard. Man do I miss Cali. At least I have my eclipse in the background to get me to work.

Snow is bad enough by itself, but that brown gunk on the road (salty slush) really makes life miserable .... rust, poor traction, poor braking, other drivers that don't understand increased stopping distance, rust, dirt on the interior floor from your boots, and did I mention rust? Ahhh, I just LOVE winter.

Put a set of Blizzaks on yesterday, and when the going gets to be more than I want my GT to endure, revert to plan " B "

It is fun to drive in tho.

I just put the stock 18" fanblades away for the winter, and got a set of 17" take offs to mount some goodyear GW'3 snow tires. Some meaty tires!

They handle great! I couldnt be happier. Ride better than the BFG's. Filling up the wheel wells, hmmm its the stock 17" size 235/55/17. id like the rear lowered 1 inch.
when the 18's are on it looks like it fills better, but same overall diameter, gotta be illusion, the bullits looks smaller with the painted spokes and machined lip

Thats for sure, its in the garage at ahome, and parked along our building at work when it snows. The plows come down the street at work at about 40-45 mph, throwing nasty stuff 20+ feet all over the cars that are parked there.
I seen a mustang at a dealership last week and it was disgustingly filthy from the plows.

Nice truck dude. Do you ever take it off-road? I took my F-150 off-road last week, it was awesome.
