YES, this one reason i got rally inspired car!!!
its a lots of fun!!!

 

people over here s..t themselves when we get a couple of centimetres of snow...ha ha ....they just dont know how to have fun!!!!

 

dunno about that...

 

I have a Question for everyone... I was driving my 8 yesterday and we probably got like 2 or 3 inches of snow... i brake like at a stop and my brakes sound really bad and felt really bad when i stepped on the brake pedal it was as if my brakes were frozen or something... really weird... dont know whats going on here.... Someone help

 

I have the Kumho ASXs and they are not as good as the Pirelli M&S I had on my STi, so I am not getting as good of traction, but they are still decent. Then again, you get what you pay for. I went sideways twice yesterday... half fun, half scary haha.

 

brakes plus water = bad... brakes plus frozen water = bad

It's just some water on your rotter's. use the brakes a little more often and it will probably dry out and be fine

 

probably abs working

 

That would be called Anti-Lock brakes sir.

 

i took my abs out!

 

u like it better?how does it compare?

 

You're so funny... I've never heard of Rotter's .. (You mean Rotors..) and I've never heard of water freezing on them either.

To answer the question to they guy who wondered about his brakes.. it is definately your ABS working and it is perfectly normal. You'll feel the brake pedal stiffen and shake up and down, the ABS computer is trying to maximize your traction, so it will not let you press the pedal all the way down which would otherwise lock up your brakes and simply let you slide.. If you want to feel more comfortable try it on a dry surface like your garage and notice how soft the pedal will be when traction is completely there.

 

snow tires + evo = FUN! Don't try it with the advans.

 

+1 except i didn't almost.. i did... have to fix my alignment...

 

i like it better then that abs feeling but the car will go sideways if you hit the brakes hard,but overall i think it's better,you are more in control!

 

hey man, I'm in the snowbelt in Madison about 30 minutes east of you, my IX is sick in this stuff with my snow tires of course. just be careful, we ride low
