Message	I've seen the LM-25 fall flat on its face. 2+2TT, with less than 6 inches on the ground. Close to brand new. Couldn't move it. Sand bags on the back, SPL suspension, even dug a path with shovels....horrible. 17 by 9s. Chose the DWS this season to drive spiritedly when its above 40 degrees without worrying about losing half my tread depth. When there's more than an inch, I have the luxury of taking the subway though :) Willingly driving a Z in high snow is all kinds of stupid. It's a sports car, so if I'm not driving above 50, and the tops aren't down, why risk an accident?
