checking in from Vallecito Co...have pictures coming from the storm due in tonight. First winter in my RS and first winter in Pirelli scorpion snow and ice...have to say they do great...but the float is odd until the traction control sets in. We are fun snowy mountain driving with lots of ice under the slush
Have a curious question for blizzak users...I spent hours on the phone with bridgestone and they where adamant that I couldn't put blizzaks on my car with its stagger set. What are you guys doing to put the blizzaks on the car...different rim size? What? Next question is what is recommended for scaling down rims from the 20's for next winter. |

Long story short, you could stagger the rims, just make sure the end diameter of all 4 wheels is very similar. |

No, with the spacers the 19's just fit. The dealer ordered and installed and when I had them put on last year, I checked to see if there was any rubbing of the wheel on the pad - its fine. Definitely could not go any smaller though.

He's a sponsor on here, he can remote tune. PM me if you can't find his info.
No snow here yet but it was 19F out. My car looks awesome on snow tires (on concrete). I always hit it on this one on-ramp.

My 1LS drives great in the snow!
My 1LS is a great winter car, the limited slip helps a lot!
