    Agreed, and if I had another car to use I wouldn't even be worrying about driving the ZHP in the winter, but unfortunately it's what I, and I'd imagine a few others, are faced with

    I try to use my wife's car as much as possible in the winter time, but when I do have to go out the Blizzaks treat me well. I had some Pirelli snow tires I liked, but these are a lot better. (WS80).

    The only other thing I can think of to add to what has been said is to use some of this stuff:

    Gummi-Pflege

    on your door and trunk weather seals to keep them from freezing together.

    Gummi Pflege is awesome. I use it on the seals in the doors as well. Like the square things that are grey and drying in most cars. Completely revived them on mine.

    That's good to know. I have previously used silicone spray on seals, but it's hard to apply on our cars- overspray.

    you can always spray it generously onto a microfiber and then go onto the seals. that's what i do.

    Good point for sure but I ordered the Gummi goop to try.
    From looking at the web it appears the 303 folks may be rebranding this product, as well.

    I haven't noticed any seal problems on my car as of yet, but should I still get this and apply it before winter? Or should I not worry about it until I start to notice some sort of issue?

    the seals dry out over time, the silicone spray (or gummy pflege) hydrates the seals... always a good thing. do it yearly.
