In addition to wondering about the judgement of the owner, I might suggest another pair of snow tires. Imagine the difference in traction between a 500 whp rear-drive car with studded snow tires on the drive wheels and Michelin Pilots on the front wheels in the winter.

A touring musician friend of mine has over 500K km (300K miles) on her Elantra GT.

Pseudy Kristen appears on her last day!
