Fraser ... well here are some better pics of the X with X6M wheels and Vreds - but in the snow!

Still camera phone pics though.

How did the vreds hook up in the snow!?!?! I know you probably aren't driving in the snow with them but did you go around the block with them on? I should have some X in the snow pics to share in a week! I'm heading up to Mammoth mtn on sunday! What is it about pics of cars in the snow thats so great!?

Thanks!

BTW ... for all those people wondering - no the Vreds are not good in the snow (summer tires). Its okay in maybe an inch or so but not much more.

Limped it home before the weather gets worse and get stranded.

See above. You posted as I was posting.

Yeah, I drove it in the snow. Not really bad but not safe IMO. Have to go really slow as its hard to stop and starting too.

I was in the Snow yesterday had the Scorpion Ice and Snows on 17's loved it!!!
Stuck like glue and stopped on a quarter when a deer ran out in front of me.

Almost got rear ended because the car in back of me could not stop in time, so I stepped on the gas and gave him a little more space. AWESOME!!!!!

Sorry to disappoint.

Next time we actually have more than an inch of snow, I'll get a shot of me doing donuts with 20ft roosters coming out the back!
