Haha yeah we got about an inch and half or about 2 inches today down in Dova and I was out having a blast on my Toyo T1-S's which I had installed yesterday. They really suck in the snow but that's ok anything is better than the stock advans which where pretty much bald at 16K Pulled a few sweet drifts and parked her quickly no need getting her all tore up. Sorry about your luck that has to suck. Good luck on getting her fixed!!

Dude, the Toyo T1-S is a summer tire, and I recommend you don't drive on them during the winter, whether there's snow and ice on the ground or not. Cold temperatures drastically affect their grip.
