Found an empty church parking lot this morning. Doing "skidpad" exercises in the 325 with the IceGuard tires was quite fun until someone from the church asked me to leave. I'm fairly impressed with the tires. Maybe I should have said I was trying to make snow angels for Jesus?

Should have told them you only answer to a higher calling, and unless they can prove they molested parishioners they are not credible religious authorities in your eyes.

Exactly the same experience I had with my first Boxster, as long as there was clearance, my
Boxster with four snow tires never got stuck.
