So..i miss driving my car...who else stores theres in the winter time?

Pizza cutter tires are the way to go for winter. I always go a size narrower and upsize the sidewall number to maintain similar O.D.
The Maxima stock size is 215/55-R16 and for winter I use 205/60-R16. Goes and stops on a dime with Blizzaks.
I did the super narrow winters one year. It ended up being a minor stretch for the tires, but it handled awesome. Through deeper snow (like 2") and slush it was like being on rails.

Wide tires on trucks is just for looks, running wide mud tires is horrible in snow/ice and most offroad even. I have 245/75-r16 on my truck and even though they are almost bald highway type tread it does ok. Next I will be getting treadwright a/t's with kedge grip. Sweet stuff, I'd post a link but potato phone.

I rather enjoy enjoy my winter vehicle. So no problems for me. But I am looking forward to driving my car again.

Nah, needed head gaskets and I got carried away. I'll do a build thread soon hopefully, just haven't gotten around to it.
my car needs head gaskets done too

Gonna give em a spin on the balancer tomorrow at work and should have em on when I get home. Aaaannnnddd...tttttthhhhheeeennn.
