Hey Impulse, did you ever buy snow tires for your IS?

BTW, my IS replaces my '97 ES3. Most reliable car I've ever owned... so far!

2000 GS 400. Was able to sell some of the mods I had on it. Was starting to get way too many rattles and squeaks, and vehicle just felt old.

My IS 350 is very quiet in comparison!
