hi gang, fabs here..w.ell this is my second winter coming up that i'll be driving my 94 civic in. The first year was quite rough i found. Okay apart from having a partial mis-alignment in the tires, the car was sliding all over the place (mainly taking off from a dead stop). I also had days where there'd be maybe a foot of snow and the car was stuck! have any of you had this problem before? the winter tires i have are in okay shape..(i think they're michlins..not too sure...) i was thinking that it may also be does to the fact that these cars are very light? I remember i didn;t have this problem with my eagle talon...(mmmm how i miss that car!!) even though it was lower to the ground and fwd! any thought on this matter would be appreciated.thanks

get a 4wd transfer case and somehow rig it on there.....

that's the only way u can fix ur problem.... that i know of...

Cept mabye newer better tires....or putting huge rocks in ur engine bay to put wieght on it, then again the litl d-series couldn't move it all with the extra weight....

Guess u'll have to deal with it like the rest of us...

Sry if this didn't help....

 

tire chains, that will get you thru anything

 

I use light truck tires with a shorter side wall. Tehy kick ass, cheap, and awesome traction.

 

my yokohama winter tires are awesome in the snow..I live in Michigan and we get hella deep snow...never had a problem once.....(tip) when you slip start in second and let out the clutch nice and easy....bogs a bit...but eliminates most wheel slip

 

Look up a tire called Hakkapelitas.

 

blizzaks have gotten me through all the blizzards

 

The Hakkapelitas are less expensive than the Blizzacks and last twice as long.

 

i think i have found my next snow tire, thanks

 

The company Nokian is in Finland and has a test track that is covered in snow and ice. Now that's testing
