Brrr! Is your Jeep still out of commission, or were you just out having some fun?

Wise indeed to have an appropriate winter set. Even so, to venture out on a trek in that weather requires fortitude. At the onset of the season, other hapless members posted pictures of their ride in a ditch.

Seems like an ideal environment for some skewed IAT logging. j/k!

I have a new set of Michelin Pilot Alpin PA2 sitting in my garage, waiting for the new rims (17x7.5) to arrive. I hope I can post similar pictures soon.

They paid $5k for the Jeep to get fixed and didn't raise my rate.

All is well!! Thanks for asking.

Eurocharged Performance ML63 and TT lambo
The snow was actually worse than what it seems in the pic. All in all we got about 10" (plainfield)

And yes, my c32 on the way home yesterday had the traction control light on most of the way!

2 inches or 2 feet still = 0 traction

So the rest of us are just a bunch of pu$$ies bc we don't get 2 feet of snow everyday? Sorry I don't get your post.
Either way snow tires on RWD cars are pretty much useless on snow more than 6". Summer tires are rendered useless on anything heavier than flurries, so winter tires are required for a lot of us, even on 2" of snow.
