I want to drive this car year round, and a little snow is spoiling my fun. I am very disappointed that the MB engineers couldn't get this right, they could of at least allowed room for 32" Blizzaks. Meanwhile all I can do is gaze longingly at my useless coupe sitting in the garage. Please help me with a fix, my Chrysler dealer has been useless!
You won't notice that much difference in "W" mode other than it starts out in second gear and the gears shift at lower speeds than in the "S" mode. I drive my SRT-6 in the snow with oem size Blizzak LM 25 tires and it drives better in the snow than some other cars I've owned. It sounds like you don't have to much experience driving a sports car in winter weather. What do you have on for tires? If you have the oem summer tires on that's most likely your problem because summer tires are pretty much useless in the snow.
