Hahah awesome! Great pictures! Your tires don't really look as if they're meant for what you're doing with them...

you can get out of a lot of stuff with winter tires, lot's of torque and a crapload of lsd's but sometimes you need a tow lol. I had to be yanked out like this 12 times

yea the shoulder of the w300's looks very all-season-ish but as a budget snow/ice tire it does the job (much better on ice than my old w404's)
