Haven't expereienced it with the ///M yet (ED on 6/14), so this will be my first winter experimenting with it.
Thank you for the welcome! USC Law is another one of my choices, although I'm on the waitlist there. Many of my friends went there for undergrad and had amazing experiences ... sadly I've heard differently regarding their law program. Being in LA currently, it would be more convenient if I were to get in (although I do have a deposit on housing in South Bend and a deposit down at Notre Dame )

If u notice you're still sliding around too much than add some weight in the trunk on snow days (I put 2- 45lb plates) and you'll get much better traction. Oh yeah, u get to drift w/o running ur tires
Glad to hear! The housing I've put a deposit down on has a fully covered garage and is in walking distance from the school, so I hopefully won't have to do too much snow driving (especially when it gets bad), but it is good to know that with a good set of winter tires and some weight in the trunk I'll be capable. Gotta love drifting Gotta find some empty parking lots
