The 225 Blizzaks sure feel a lot more squirelly than my 245 Kuhmo ASX in the rain or on the dry

maybe I should have been like Keegan and gotten some 235 snows... or maybe I should just slow down.

Default Very spooky feeling when the tread blocks flex so much

This is why I run ContiExtremeContact performance all-season in the winter. Not quite as good in the snow, but much better in the dry and wet. We don't get all that much snow here either.

You'll be glad you have 'em when you hit ice or hard-packed snow.

Default Where did you buy your boots from? Online?

I need to upgrade (ski boots) as well.
