I'm on 18" 712's as well and there isn't anyway I'm going to be taking my car out in this crap! Have fun in Florida though, I'd love to be heading there right about now.

I knew I should have waited to put them on! oh well...hopefully most of the snow will be gone on the road by tomorrow.

You know what this is? it's revenge from Vancouver when Calgary whooped them last night, but they were so pissed they gave it to all of Alberta instead of just Calgary.

Ha!

I drove to work anyway. I mean how bad could it be. Other than sliding down the ramp to the underground garage where I parked today, there no problem at all!

F@$k the driving sucked today. I couldn't do more than 50 km/h on deerfoot this morning. Dumd a$$ truck and jeep drivers where splashing my car with slush making it worse for me to see.

I had my summer tires on the c230. They Suck big time in winter driving conditions. I was sliding all over the place. I hate Calgary weather.:guns:

My ContiExtremes worked out pretty well, but for some reason they seem to throw EVERY LAST SPEC of dirt/slush onto my car.:banghead:

I drove into downtown this morning with the 712s without problems. Mind you, it was just getting slushy, and the 712s have that nice deep centre channel for dissipating the water and slush. It's the frozen shtuff that's gonna wreak havoc on us! Be careful.

i am in the 712 club too:banghead:

try driving on international ave all the way from chestermere...it was hell my car was just hovering over the snow. now it is all gone and clear roads :thumbsup: but more rain for the forcast
