Default TT 225 + Blizzacks + 14in snow = FUN!

8:30am, Stamford, CT. already 14in snow on ground...went out to see if the TT can handle it up and down pretty good hills...the answer is- YES!

pretty fun but decided to quickly come back in..this blizzard is probably the worst I've seen and it is coming down in buckets. At this point I wouldn't be suprised to see at least 20in on the ground here in Stamford this afternoon.

Default Blizzarks are the best! Had them on my '01 coupe and loved them.

And lucky you on the snow. It's about over here in northeastern PA, only got 8-10", but heavy winds and it's drifting, so it will get interesting later!

Default the TT with good snows tires is a TANK in the snow.....>>>>

ground clearance is your only challenge! Still coming down hard here in Fairfield too....almost time to do a first pass with the snow blower! ;-)

Default My car is sitting this one out, but the Durango will move today - I needs to go sightseeing!

14+ here by afternoon - drifts are awesome!

yeah, it goes, but the front air dam is like a snowplow in these conditions...TT is staying in unless emergency situation.... Snow still pounding down here in Stamford, already has to be 18in here.

Default I love the Dunlop Wintersport M3's on the TT.

A little harder than the Blizzaks... they don't wear quite as fast, imo. Both great tires though.

Yeah... the TT is awesome in the snow with a set of snows. Let's see the Nissan Z or the Crossfire in this weather!
