it's not nearly as bad as I was expecting, but right now I have all-season on the rear and summer fronts, so I spin a lot and it doesnt turn well in town. I should hopefully get some better tires this month though, gotta pay bills first.
I am impressed with the traction control though.

Yeah...if you're going to drive a rwd G in the winter, good winter tires are a must! I was rocking some pretty average winter tires (and somewhat worn) last year and there were a few oh **** moments when I was just going straight and the car broke sideways on the smallest patches of snow or ice. Don't go cheap on the tires you choose for winter!

Also remember that there is more to winter driving than just acceleration. Stopping and turning are just as important if not more important, so i'd recommend getting the summer tires off of the front ASAP. That is unsafe and a bad idea.

is that still the Nismo front? I have been looking at them but they are all smooth on the side?
I want a new front that drops more straight down but I cant find anything I like.

Noo, the sedan is my boyfriend's now. But we sort of drive them interchangeably depending on the weather.. His perform slightly better in the heavy snow storms.
