Snow in Portland

[Spades]

well, we only get snow like once (if that often) a year. ice, well, thats ussually a few times a year.

as far as snow tires, if you are looking in the northwest, good luck with that, cause this snow scare made people buy most of the local supply out a week ago.

you might try looking for a differant size, as in, a wider or taller tire....that might not be a common size for snow tires it sounds like...i have 15's on my yaris right now, not sure the size, pretty tall suckers though. i dont really care, my speedo is off normally anyway, cause i have a very wide and tall 17" tire on there normally.

They told me that the intelli transmission would have to be recalibrated by the dealer if I changed tire size and thus it would not be good for the vehicle. What say thee? :)
