All I know is a few years back when I had an 84 Z28 we had a really bad ice storm. There was at least 1 1/2" of ice on the street. Lucklily, the car was parked before the ice hit so all four tires were still on pavement. I got the car moving but I got stuck trying to make a 3 point turn. I gave it a little thottle, then some more, then alot and the car never moved. When I got out and walked around the car, both front wheels and the rear left were firmly planted. However, the right rear wheel had burned down in to the ice coating the road and was just sorta hanging out. I could run my hand under the tire without touching it or the ice.

Luckliy since the ice was so bad, I put it in neutral, and pushed it back into its parking space. Then I went back inside, called in to work and went back to bed.
