I would like to do a pole to find out how many V6 owners that live where it sleets and snows drive their car all winter long and what brand of tire do you use?

I had been driving on the stock 215's for the first couple of winters, the 215's up front and 225's in the rear last winter, and this winter 245's all the way around. I'm in Indiana so plenty of snow and ice. So long as you respect the road conditions and don't act like an idiot you'll be fine

For those of you that do not live where there is snows, I got stuck twice last year in Missouri. Once before the tow truck pulled me out and once after he left lol. And there were a couple of times that if I had a sail, I would have been the first Mustang ice boat. At the time I was using Pirelli's. The main reason that I could not get out once stuck was the damn traction control. I kept bogging down the engine.

Drive it all winter long......in CANADA!!
I'm not too far north though, just in Toronto
With a set of toyo winter tires I'm usually good to go in most conditions

Washington State here, don't get snow very often. Last year was the worst snow/ice storm I've ever seen here, but not normal at all. Snow days we take the SUV, other days my wife drives her V6 10 miles to work. The black car stays in the garage unless it's dry outside.
