Snow/Winter Tires
hi guys, i am from nor cal (bay area). i'd like to help out a fellow friend/g35 owner with his questions. he emailed me today to break the news that he bought a (not sure what yr) LR g35, he was wondering:
"how does your car handle in the rain? tryin to see what i can do to it to get a better traction..cause im about to face rain and snow here in dc soon..."
any words of wisdom for my friend? it doesnt snow here so i am not too familiar with what options he has, looks like his car is bone stock! & ofcourse i told him to join the boards! i am sure you will see him on here soon!

Like the other posters have already said, A good set of snows/rims and a conservative driving style during bad weather, will prove the G can get around with the rest of them out there.
I went with 17" rims and Dunlop Winter Sport M3's. I was surprised how civil the car was in the snow by driving conservatively. Didn't notice any loss of handling/performance with the higher sidewalls on dry/wet roads as well.
Don't think this car will be fine in the snow/ice with the OEM Summer Performance tires.....its a recipe for disaster!
