hey guys, my mistake. its rwd. my dad was told when he got it it was fwd. its more my moms all year round car. now that he knows that its rwd he's kinda pissed, because it won't be half as good in snow. do people wear steelies? or mount winter tires on the stockers? 18 or 19" steelies would be hilarious.
ps - sorry if i'm "Dumbing down of America", haha but i don't know **** about crossfires yet. the proteges my hobby.

Haha, this gave me the laugh I needed for the day. It's ok though, some people are just more inclined about cars than others are.

Hey, you can take offense to my reaction if you want, but I promise you I'm not the only one laughing at this scenario. It's about one rung down the ladder from trying to ski up a mountain.

read the owners manual ... it lists recommended winter tire sizes + the use of 18 inch wheels like the front in the back ... 225 width all around, check manual for sidewall height as i do not recall...

its good in snow with snow tires + the great traction and stability control it has ...

bluewater87,

To let you know, I drove in 3 inches of fresh snow in Flagstaff last January (2007). I only had the Pilot Sport All Season radials on my SRT6. Stock rim sizes too.

I will say that I had to go slow, but I always go slower in snow and ice.

Hope that helps... Cheers!
