one more reason i run 20% tint all around… i didn’t like having my cabin light up like the bomb scene in oppenheimer when a truck/suv is behind me.

doesn’t need to snow a lot to justify running winter tires if temps are at or below freezing for months. all-season & summer tire rubber is too stiff in the cold. but sure, if you live in a warmer climate i wouldn’t run them either.

baffling to me how the mere suggestion of climate appropriate tires enrages most drivers, it’s like you’re attacking their ability to drive or something. like dude i get it, you don’t need winter tires, but the endless entertainment they offer while you walk away from all-season-heroes on traction limited surfaces going up a hill, or being able to brake in time for an emergency, or drive a faster & more appropriate speed while the masses have their hazards on going 5mph white-knuckling their way through, TOO FUN!

honestly i’m glad many don’t bother, makes having a properly equipped vehicle all the more fun. i think many don’t bother because so many npc vehicles have awd/4wd these days. too bad braking is all in the tire…
