Since we're well into winter, and already experienced one snowy storm here on the East coast, I'm wondering if anyone can comment on teh winter performance of their GT-R? How well does it ACTUALLY handle the snow, ice, and torrential rain --> Is it really a supercar for anyone, anywhere, anytime?

 

I have the "original equipment" recommended Bridgestone Blizzak snow tires on the car. Have driven it every day this winter in the north-east. Today it is about 5 degrees fareheit with snow on the ground.
Car is perfectly driveable in these conditions. The only cautions are the depth of snow (anything over 5 inches and the front lip becomes a plough), and of course, the tires are pretty wide, so the car accelerates just fine, but does tend to slide a bit on snow in turns, as all cars with wide snow tires tend to do.
Perfectly good in rain.
Heater works fine, seat heaters real good.

Actually took it to a winter track event last week, and it was a lot of fun.

 

I put Blizzak 25 winter tires on 4 weeks ago and have been driving in the snow, ice, etc. and i can tell you the GTR is a snow machine!

Anyone try driving through this past winter with the cold weather package all season tires instead of dedicated snows?

 

I tried the AS OEM tires in the snow with my 2009 GTR and it was a disaster. I'm looking for an affordable snow tire package for my 2014 GTR. Anyone come up with maybe an 18" package with a narrower and taller profile?
