Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

In KC we get more ice than snow, hence I run Blizzaks WS-50s on my Miata.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I'man avid snowboarder leaving my 4x4 SUV behind for the Cayman, my first P-car. I have a photo of a Cayman driving in the snowas my screen saver but I'm wondering how realistic it is for me to think I can/should actually take this past the fun dry roads into the snow, with chains and roof rack of course. Any thoughts based on your experiences?

POST 2Original post

As with a Boxter, proper snow tires turn this Gator into a Polar bear! You will look for excuses to drive it in the snow...(I have out fitted my past 911 & Boxster withblizzaks) The Boxster was the most fun!

POST 3Original post

Four (no more no less ; -) snow tires do the trick. They'll turn any relatively balanced car into a real blast in winter. Avoid deep stuff (of course) and select the proper tire for the type of winter conditions you normally drive in. Some tires are optimised for packed snow, some for ice. In KC we get more ice than snow, hence I run Blizzaks WS-50s on my Miata. Do not even think that M&S rated tires are the way to go, the sidewall has to have the 'Mountain and Snowflake' symbol.

POST 5Original post

I live in sunny Southern California andget to Big Bear in 1 1/2 hours or Mammoth in about 5 1/2 (mayber quicker now maybeonce or twice a month. 95%of the wayand most of the time there's not even snow or ice even on the road but if you get lucky and catch a storm..... I ordered mine with 19' sport design wheels. Given that it's for such a small amount of low speed driving could I have gotten away with 18' wheels with standard tiresplus chains? I think I know the answer to driving on low-profiles....

POST 6Original post

Serious follow-up question ... I'm talking about taking my new baby into the french alps in January, the plan would be to drive to Chamonix or Bourg St Maurice(both fairly low, under 4000 Ft), possibly leaving the car there rather than taking the car upany more 'serious' roads. I normally drive in the UK or Ireland in areas where 'snow is something you see on holidays' ... and I don't want to buy winter tires if I'm never going to see snow. If I'm staying on 'freeways'/motorways the whole time do I need winter tires or can I get away with the stock tires I received on the shipped car? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Colm

POST 7Original post

aren't the stock tires performance summer tires? if so, I believe even dry cold roads are problems for the tires. I was told that when the outside temperature is below 40F, summer tires don't perform well...

POST 8Original post

Carbon; You will have to stop in an say hi on your way to Mammoth, as I live in the high desert which you may pass through on the way...
