Sunshine and Lake Louise are going to have ridiculous powder this weekend.
As long as your not driving like a jackass, the F is completely capable with a good winter set up, even in the worst conditions.

right now I am on the Michelin Xice non performance snows. they are pretty squishy. I picked up a nearly new set of PA2 from an IS350 owner but have yet to put them on because I was looking for a wider rim in the back. I wanted to dual purpose these wheels as my track wheels, but damn tire rack is too lazy to look for a pull off set to match up. Ah well, I am gonna wear this down with the throttle and then next season swap over to the PA2's hopefully. The Xice is a great 4 wheel drifting tire I have gotten used to it. Its like riding a dirt bike in the sand, everything pushes.

I miss Chicago for this exact reason - can we say " D R I F T "...hahaha
We used to take my 99 GS400 into the Walmart parking lot to do drifts right after the first snowfall. It's funny how CA people get scared at the first sign of rain - so WEAKSAUCE!
Cool pics, I like your F-logo on the driver's door - wat made you want to add that?

Hopefully we'll get those 20cm of snow on Wednesday, and I'll be able to give my OTHER F a spin through the snow with summer compound tires before shipping it down to Florida!

What size/offsets are the Kosei's?
As long as you manage the torque everything is fine. I am running thin tires all the way around so it helps in some cases and hurts in others. I am pretty used to low traction driving so that is not a huge deal. The bigger problem is ride height and ice chunks. Sometimes if its deep I am a snowplow. The Kosei Wheels are super light as well, so they spin up quite freely As long as the snow is not too deep, I am out there driving.
