This will be my first winter in an area where it snows (Detroit, MI); I have never driven in snow, how imperative is it for me to get snow tires on my SVT? I realize traction is going to suck pretty bad on my stock tires (BFG KDWs) I would like to get some Blizzaks but I really don't want to have to buy some junk wheels to put them on (they don't make Blizzaks in 215/50/16)
What would those that know more about winter driving suggest? should I just bite the bullet and get the new wheels along w/ some Blizzaks or should I go with another tire that will fit on the SVT wheels (btw my KDWs only have 6K on them)
any opinions/recommendations are appreciated
