Best Snow Car... EVER!!!

We got over 10" of snow and ice yesterday and I must say that my 2012 Camaro 2LS is THE best car I've ever owned for driving in the snow and ice!!!

The stock 18" BF Goodrich All Weather Tires took everything Mother Nature had to give and shoved it back in her face.

THANK YOU GM and BF Goodrich!!!

I got the DWS and they did great on our first storm a couple of weeks ago. As long as you dont get on it to much, the tires wont spin. Its to be expected though with as much power our cars have.

If you didn't notice, his car is sitting outside in the snow, ice, salt, cinders and slop. I don't think he minds.

Got the same tires, 3 yrs 4 months and they still look new.
50/50 weight distribution helps a lot on the V6.

I don't do snow though.

You can rest assured if you ever wanted to take your Camaro out and play in the snow, you'll be in good hands.
