So how well did the Stang handle in the ice?
Well, I know a lot of us probably drove to work this morning so how well did the Stang handle in the ice. My 295/35/20 nitto invos surprisingly held the icy DNT down!!! No slip or squirm. I'm getting my moneys worth out of this tire in all weather conditions so far.

Agreed. No worries about any conditions in my 4x4 beater.

Mine handles great. These Michelin PSS held their own as well. I only did some sliding on Friday night when I basically came to a stop in some thick slush spots.
However, the cobblestone ice that I did encounter (@ 20 mph) made the tires completely useless when I went airbourne.

Using full AdavnceTrac I had no issues to speak of. Just slowed way down when I saw ice or the road looked slick and moved along.

Actually I think it was so bad that people actually stayed off the road. We didn't have any bad accidents just lots of fender benders. Other than that it was VERY boring

I'm surprised. I expected some people to be out attempting some Christmas shopping.

funny as hell when it snows or the roads get ice on them everyone drives like complete retards in texas. iv always been a good driver and understand how cars will act in different conditions which is the same for many of yall. just funny to see others hit ice and freak out and crash. after driving in korea in the winters im even better on ice and stuff. yall stay safe and watch out for 16yr old girls texting and driving 20mph over the speed limit on curvy roads with ice... best of luck to everyone.

Not true. I drove it home in the rain from the Mustang vs Camaro event on my drag radials. A big rig went by and splashed enough water in our lane my car went 90 degrees the wrong way facing the guard rail. Thankfully was able to pull it back without hitting anything or anyone but scared the shit out of my poor wife in the process who rarely goes to any Mustang stuff with me anymore. Exactly what I was worried about almost happened because I let you guys talking shit affect me. Won't happen again, you guys can go fuck yourselves. lol
