Has anyone driven their srt8 in snow (couple of inches)? If so how did it handle?

There are many threads here on that. I had the Jeep SRT in Chicago. It handles it just fine. Just do not go using your front fascia as a plow and you will be fine.

I have driven the winter season in Canada on Pirelli Scorpion 275/40/R20's. I drove in lots of deep snow and ice and had absolutely no problem. The only problem is cruising around without a spare. OK near home, but otherwise not great. Putting a spare together costs $$$$$$$. I think the stock rims are close to $2K each from the dealership.

shoda said it, OEM tires are fine just watch the clearance. The SRT8 is better than my WJ w/QT2.
