Don't get it - snow tires vs stock
#27
Back in the 80's when everything was skinny tires, front wheel drive, and all seasons people got complacent about what tires we had on our cars. Now that rear wheel drive with performance tires are back American's need to be more aware of what tires your car has on it. It still boggles my mind that lots of people don't know their car comes with summer tires as OEM.

Yeah, the law here is right tire for the conditions, which is a bit fuzzy, but it means if you crash and it's snow and you've got summer tires, you will be poorer than you were.
Some people go for all-season tires. Which I call crappy tires in summer and crappy tires in winter.

and yeah, snow tires really should be mandatory in states where it actually snows. maryland/va and up on the east coast.

Since I moved here, I have never seen so many people with non working headlights and tail lights .They have freaking inspections here, In fl they dont do any inpections or emissions testing and you hardly ever see headlights burnt out. I dont get it.

It would be hard to mandate snow tires in a state like Virginia, where there are usually only a few snow days a year, and a lot of years have no snow at all.
