Madlock Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Although I don't intend for my GT500 to see a whole lot of winter, with the Goodyear SVT Tires being so specifically designed for summer (non cold/snow) use, I'd appreciate any guidance as to alternatives that would be suitable for more inclement weather and everyday use, even in summer - particularly since it doesn't seem to be as simple as finding a set of 19's that'll fit on the GT500 due to its SVT retuning. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance. I will say in my Experience on F1 DS3s in cold weather if you get stuck in early light snow it will take a miracle to get home in a car with this much HP. I had a light early October snow in my 350HP saleen and I've never been more afraid in my life than trying to keep that thing on the road. It was a damn miracle I made it home. High HP on any tires in a rear wheel drive car in cold weather are a bad combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance. I use a set of Pirelli Sottozero's I got from Tirerack for the winter months. I did notice that they recently offer many more options for all season use but that is all that was available when i got my car in January. The Pirellis perfromed well in the snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
