Also that's why you need snow tires on all these fancy new SUV's, my buddies G wagon when he got it did something pretty similar with summer rubber.


I see X5's and Range Rovers doing 4 wheel burn outs all the time, summer rubber doesn't do anything in snow. The manufactures put on summer road tires so they handle more like cars for the test drive, the only problem is they are 4wd SUV's...so those tires are a poor long term choice.
and when they are told - umm you are running wrong tires, they get defensive of the brand and try to prove that the super computer controlling the truck is supposed to pull it out of any off road situation no matter what tires it has.
