Are Evos good in the snow?
I’ve ran my Evo one winter in northern Illinois with the Continental Extreme Contact DSW06 +. In light snow it was fine when it started getting thicker snow it was sliding here and there, but when it came to icy roads there was little to no traction. I’d say if you want to be safe just get a set of snow tires. The rolling resistance of a winter tyre is greater than that of a summer tyre of the same size. By driving with winter tyres in summer, you will therefore consume more fuel and register greater CO2 emissions.It is strongly recommended that you do not use winter tyres in summer; they should be replaced when the temperature is consistently above 7°C. Winter tyres are not built for hot roads as the soft compound tends to wear quickly, so they need to be replaced with summer or all-season tyres.On snow, the gap widens considerably, as the sipes on winter tyres offer grip even when the tread is packed with soft snow. In such conditions, a two-wheel-drive car with winter tyres is invariably safer than 4×4 on summer tyres. Winter tyres can also help you avoid getting your car stuck in the mud.
