Snow.

Amazing. 22 months ago when I started this thread, snow socks seemed to be generally ridiculed by members who posted. Now various threads regarding these are running and the idea seems to be generally acceptable.

lol,,check it out in a years time and everyone will probably be arguing over which ones look the coolest on their lex !!! times change i suppose

Looking at getting some of these after last years dodgy weather. Living in a hilly city like Sheffield i was unable to even get the car off my side road a few times last year, (Wasn't an IS though). A colleague at work got some last year and he said they made the world of difference on his IS200. The day before it took him over an hour to get about a quarter of a mile down the road and back again but a couple of minutes the following day with the autosocks on when the roads were actually worse.

They may look daft but if it means me being able to get to work and back in the car rather than having to use my holidays or take an hour to two hour train journey and walk, (again like i had to do a couple of times last year), they'll do for me!!!!

Cheers

Given the choice of driving a quarter of a mile and back in over an hour and that the average walking speed is 4 MPH I would have left the car and walked it quicker.

lol I know i told him that but he was adamant he didn't want to leave his car on the road and wanted it back at home off the road.
