  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

All wheel or snows

Actually it does help you turn also as the front wheels on awd pull you in the proper direction as opposed to the front wheels being pushed by the car into a turn with rwd. ;)

If you have no traction then it won't help you at all. We have a 2015 WRX we bought last week that comes with summer tires that were were hoping to wait on having to replace until next year since its the end of winter but no such luck. I slid everywhere in my 2.5 mile drive earlier today. Its all about tires.
 
drove for 2 hrs on Saturday in 4 to 5 inches of snow and it handled better than expected ,it tracked very well . 3/4 of the way home I realized I never had it in snow mode and when I turned that on ,it was even better. Very impressed :)

Here in Indiana, Blizzak WS80s on sale now. Picked up 4 at $90 each. These were 16" for a 2014 Mazda 3. The LM60 in 18" or 17" going for $137 each. I guess end of season sale. I have Blizzaks on TAU 5.0. They are amazing.. So too the limited use to date on the Mazda 3. FYI

Plus tax.

Agreed - I drove in the snow this morning and was impressed with Snow mode. In the dry, it really hampers but in the snow it is just right.
