If you have custom wheels, you are going to have trouble on ice. I just went to Lake Arrowhead and had to buy chains. I also slid into a snow drift by a mountain. I have to get my front right rim re-finished now. Watch it.

 

Mine is ok in the snow, but in bad snow storms it is realy bad. This happens about once a winter. I got stuck last year but only large vehicals like 4wheel trucks could handle it. Should have taken my 1977 short van but with the collector plates it is illegal to drive in january. My car is realy bad this year but that is because of the bald tires. looking to trade some carbon fibor fenders for a good set of rubber. But anyway my car dives ok, In a snow storm happens dont bother to chance it with the xb. It does get bad here in milwaukee wi.
