What is the purpose of a snow tire? To get traction on the snow. Picture a snowball, what sticks to snow? Snow!

Snow tires are designed to pickup snow so they can get and keep traction on snow. The other properties that assist in traction are the "softer" rubber and sipes. The tires remain "soft" at lower temps and the sipes are used on ice for traction as the more edges the better the grip.

Basic snow tire 101

Anyone else notice that the Z/28 has painted roof ditch moldings and roof antenna even though RS pkg is not available?

If you didn't like the new tail lights, then you should have called Becky and rush ordered a 13' like I did. Otherwise, GET OVER IT!

I'm not even going to get started with your Fake Hood Insert comment. That's just not even right.

BTW: in case you forgot what the old camaros looked like....

I agree, total sick of the taillight comments! These cars are awesome whichever taillights are on it, maybe they should bring back the 180hp 350, then we would have something to complain about!!

I'll take it after they slap a salvage title on it.

Then I will drive it every day just to make somebody mad

. But little do they know we get a dusting of snow down here about once every 4 years. Heck, it will be nice and sunny in the 80's this weekend.

thank you Camaro_Corvette.
whatever anyone thinks of the new taillights, they definitely LOOK LIKE CAMARO TAILLIGHT'S

WE ARE ALL ENTITLED TO OUR OWN OPINION AND YEP ITS STILL A HONDA PRELUDE ,as did 80% of this forum dislike them,and i did turn down a 14 which was offered to be for a grand less because they did not have the color i wanted...I dont need to learn anything I was not talking absolute facts
But the thing is i didnt make it personal or comment directly at anyone person...If you like it,drive it. If you dont, dont drive it,thats all that should matter,

either way,yes they are Camaro tail lights ....

I predict that these cars left parked in public will begin missing emblems...

Love the car but DAMN THATS DIRTY!!!!

stlrammer · 02-13-2014, 09:48 PM

Love the car but how do you drive a Z28 with summer only tires in the snow? My summer tires turn to stone at about 25 degrees.

Because they put winter tires on it, Pirelli Sottozeros.
