Message	Does anyone know off hand which is better for traction in the snow? I know on trucks they lower the pressure for a wider surface area, but those are completely different tires. I can't find snow tires for my Z either. I'm running on Bridgestone Potenza's on the stock TT rims (7.5 front, 8.5 rear). Any suggestions would be much appreciated since I took the last half hour digging my car out of the snow on the street so that I could get it in the garage...
