>> Need better tires and some weight in the back. This utterly transformed my death-trap Camaro. 200# of sand over the drive wheels was what I used. And in a pinch you could always slice open a tube and throw some under the wheels.
I use(d) Nokian Hakkapeliittas on the Frankenheap W115 200D, and usually had a bunch of crap in the trunk. That car did _very_ well in the snow, and the Hakkas last for years. I remember well chuffing through powder snow drifts that swept over the hood of the car. Until we were forced to stop by some dumb-ass who had stopped in the middle of the road, at an uphill stop sign, which under those conditions need be merely advisory, we were unstoppable. I'll take a well set up rwd car any day over a poorly set up 4wd. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
