how is evo on snow?
hi, this evo is my first awd car.
i know this is not a suv but how does evo handles on 1-3 inches of snow with stock tires?
is evo gonna handle better than fwd cars? such as accord, civic..
and is it definitely gonna be better than rwd bmw 3 sereis, s2000?
by the way aboe cars i mentioned, i used to own them.
hopefully evo falls between those 2 groups.
thanks.

ummmmm not sure what tires are on the evo x's but on the stock advans on the Evo 8's, you couldn't go 10 feet.......
I had to buy snow tires BUT once I did that, that thing was like an H1 Hummer man
I was doing 50-65 mph down our highways with 6 inches of snow, flying past other drivers in suv's....
The evo rocks it out in the snow but you have to be careful with stock tires as they are more than likely not all season tires and when you go to take your first turn, you might as well hang on for the ride and hope your not gonna hit anything to hard....
