[QUOTE="Vanguard2001, post: 164458, member: 4459"] When at the Spring Mountain Corvette Owners School recently, I asked some of the instructors (all young guys of course) what they thought of driving the car in winter. Their reply was consistent - the Corvette is not a pure summer car - drive it in any weather as long as you have the right tires and consider the road conditions as well as your skills. They also recommend the Michelin Pilot Sport AS 3 tire for 3 season driving. One instructor remarked that one clue is that Michelin makes winter tires in the size required. The Corvette Owners Manual contains a section on winter driving and describes the 'rocking method' to extricate the car from snow :nailbiting:. Must be a copy/paste from the Silverado manual. I'll let you know when we approach November 2019 if my thinking remains aligned for winter use of my beautiful Stingray. [/QUOTE]
