Im wondering who is going to drive thier camaro in the snow. lol also does the camaro come with all season tires or summer tires. I saw somewhere That certain models come with summer only tires ,does this mean no rain or snow. I def wanna do some donuts in the snow..... cant wait to get this thing 2lt rs . lemme know what everyone thinks about this . Also is the traction control going to make any diffrence.

It's the end of August. Something tells me no one's driven in the snow just yet, but I'm just assuming this since the Northern Hemisphere gets a lot of sunlight during the summer...

How could you drive such a beautiful car in the snow and salt??

You'd have to be crazy!!!!!!

SilverIce1 · 09-01-2009, 08:03 PM

I intend to drive my Camaro, because it is a car and meant to be driven, in every form of precipitation except hail. Yes, even snow.

You got the RS package, so your will some with 20 inch summer tires. Good luck!

The first time salt is dropped on the roads my car is done for the winter.

Verio · 09-01-2009, 08:45 PM

It's my daily driver. If it snows, and I'm going to work, I'm driving it. WAHOOOOOOO MASSACHUSETTS SNOW!

HeavyD · 09-01-2009, 08:55 PM

I won't drive mine in the snow or slushy, salty mess. But there are plenty of winter days where the roads are perfectly clean and dry to drive on.

I will be. lol

Soon as the snow hits I'll let ya know.

Y2Breeze · 09-01-2009, 09:33 PM

I will be too. Canada's covered with snow for 5-6 months, and I bought this car to drive it, not to look at it for 5 months...

bluch · 09-01-2009, 11:43 PM

those look pretty good, but not sure they would work good for my winter....

Chevybum2488 · 09-01-2009, 11:47 PM

How about swapping summer tires for snow tires. Or we had an Cadillac STS with summer tires and had Michellin All Season tires put on.

Croatcamaro2010 · 09-01-2009, 11:53 PM

i think ill try and find good year round tires, cause this will be my driving car too, to all those kanukistanis' dont you hate it when people think its always snowing in canada?

SNV · 09-02-2009, 06:00 AM

Mine will be my daily car. I will drive it in the winter. But I will also get a cheap car to drive in the deaper snow. I am sure the camaro will not like snow. I had an 07 mustang and I can tell you it sucked in the snow. Took it out in a deep snow once when the roads were not plowed well. I was driving to work. I said I would never do that again lol. Backend of the car was all over the place. I wouldn't think the camaro will be that much better.
