Snow and Chains
Anyone have any feedback on how the Protege5 handles on snow/ice?

Anyone found any chains/cables that fit factory tires without banging the wheel wells?

any proper sized chains will fit without problems on stock tires with stock ride height. the car handles well on slippery surfaces as long as it grips and it will have heavy understeer while slipping. better than oversteer which RWD cars can have.
