It's not that they can't afford the $1200 for the winter tires. It is that they are so oblivious and ignorant about life that changing tires for winter don't even cross their mind.

This group people are an socially awkward cancerous generation of society. Time will teach them.

I checked that kids Instagram account with the GT-R, you'd think with all the modifications he does to his cars and track days that he would be smart enough to get winter tires lol

Cars are already getting stuck on the hill near my house in North Burnaby. Not sure why people who spin out when it is flat think they will succeed going up a steep hill.

Money doesn't buy skill or knowledge, apparently.

I think a lot of rich kids with BMWs are guilty of this as well. I saw one BMW stuck on a pole with the kid talking to the insurance person when it snowed last year around this time.

I doubt half of these "track modded" cars go on tracks or even AutoX at all. Some of them seem to be just ricers, albeit the ones that can afford something more than an old Civic. Sometimes I see some nice BMWs with giant wings and fart can exhausts drive by and I just shake my head.

Anyways, we may get flurries in Victoria as well. Have my winters on since late October, so should be ready... Assuming if I wanna drive my 8 in snow at all.

It was snowing hard from my journey from Coquitlam to Langley. You know it's snowpocalypse when there's accumulation on the highway.
