I haven't even driven on ice anywhere yet. It's such a screwed up winter.

They would be different but to what degree I can't say as you're running a Subbie and I have no idea what the stock A/S tires are like on those (I'm assuming that you're on stock A/S at this point)

Yeah, this winter is nuts. Today there was snow in the east end of the GTA and rain out in the west end :blink:

Hell, the squirrels are running around like its mid spring! (I've seen more than a few panic stops to avoid making squirrel pate :P )
