We are having a little bit of snow here in Seattle. Good time to practice snow skills.

2011 MCS, stock run-flat, all weather tires (that have 5 track days on them):

 

Looks like fun. But getting there wouldn't have been??

 

If you mean driving in snow by "getting there", it is still fun. MINI does great in snow covered roads. I'd suggest winter tires if you're living in a hilly area (ie, steep hills). I had to avoid any steep-ish hill just in case (I have all weather tires).

 

Looks like a blast! I would love to test mine out sliding around since MINIs have such great handling!

 

which all-seasons, just curious? The ContiProContacts? No e-brake used there?

 

Whatever the stock ones for Cooper S with no sport package. They're 195-16".
I used hand brake to initiate the slides.
