Should You Drive RWD In The Snow? - BMW E92 M3 POV (Binaural Audio) 

Just put Blizzaks on my S2000

I love this slip sliding driving.just don’t get that in Africa.

Altimax Arctic are the greatest performing tire in the snow I've ever experienced. However, you give too much up in exchange for that snow traction. I'll be throwing the Wintracs on next winter.

Just had a good snow here in Canada. Blizzaks on my Genesis 5.0 Htrac are confident and fun!

Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 on my 2020 Subaru Outback!

lmao. truth

And mustang drivers on summers (in my area)

@@jasonwang508 facts i hav a mustang and putting snow tires on changed the game not enough people are doing that

typical americans

Nah, its the 3,000lb CUVs you want to avoid.

@Jay Jay I got some Michelin primacy on my brz and I’m doing well

I ran all seasons for 6 straight years in a GrandPrix and 3 years in an Impreza and I live in the North East Kingdom. You must be from below the mason Dixon

The point is that “all-seasons” don’t perform as well as summer tires in summer weather and also don’t perform as well as winter tires in snow. You should do yourselves a favour and buy a set of summer tires and a set of winter tires. It’s just better. (PS, I live in Quebec, Canada where snow tires are a requirement and really glad that they are)

@@matteocavallin8775 All Seasons are well developed these days, much improved than the first times when they just established. Of course All Seasons aren't as good as summer tires for the summer and winter tires for the winter, they are in a balance of both actually are even closer towards and almost regular winter tires because the winter season offers the dangerous road conditions and challenges. I'm driving all-seasons on cars for 10 years on various cars Ford SUV's, BMW, Audi, Ford Sedans... been in deep snow and ski resorts without problems ever. We had enough of exhanging tires on 2-4 cars each season and buying 8 tires per car when needed isn't very amusing. One set of all seasons and you are good for at least 3-4 years depending on your driving and tire pressure. Sure, you can go to your dealership or workshop to exchange the tires but they don't do it for free too. ;) All-Seasons are very very good developed and more than good enough for regions where the winters aren't to heavy, living in high alpine and mountainous regions it is recommended to better use regular winters because of the heights and steeps. It really depends on where you live and really live under conditions where true winter tires are better required or not. Technically you even could drive on winters all year, because there's no summer tires requirement but the softer rubber increases wear, lower mileage and control can be wacky in emergancy cases because of the softer profile in hot summer. conditions. All-Seasons are great for people living in regions where the winters don't become so snow heavy usually or with snow the conditions are managable but also warmer countries/states. I'm living in northern germany and the winters are constantly changing, there is snow and sometimes heavy snow but the recent yearsit didn't stay long sadly, but as said I'm going to skiing trips yearly and going to the Mid-West Germany Winterberg you already enter Winter Wonderland and I had no problems driving there. Although going to Austria's and Switzerland ski resorts you might prefer true winters.

should not even exist this type of tires :D

That and some common sense

Perfect summary of the video.

@@jayd8919 It's actually quite the opposite. AWD, 4x4 gives people fake sense of security due to the fact that they can accelerate pretty decently however they can't brake any faster or steer fast and that's why a lot of accidents happen in winter.

@@jayd8919 it will not stop any faster, it will not turn better on actual ice etc. Where 4x4 shines in winter is hills and getting unstuck if things go side ways. Been driving rwd in winter for years, in modern cars it's just small problem on hills and that's that. It's clear to me you have very little of actual driving experience if you thing your 4x4 has magical powers and a lot more grip then anything other...

@@jayd8919 facts. turning under acceleration in 4 wheel or all wheel has way more grip than doing the same thing in a rear wheel drive car

replace LSD with open diff and you get death

@@TheGlenerd2 lol

concert + lsd = fun

@@cromulation true that

Facts. I see you’ve got an E36 M3. I posted a video of mine in the snow a few days ago! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_c3yE-NT-X8.html&app=desktop&persist_app=1

I agree! In parking lots especially.

my city has terrible potholes. i gotta be so careful haha

off* and good tip.

@@googlewolly sorry I am not a native speaker... I have corrected the mistake, thank you.

Yessssssss

Facts bro, it just makes me feel secure that if this were to happen to me I can calmly fix it and actually learn a thing or two :))

@@Boost3334 bro no way we’re on the same video

Robin laat mij raden je bent Nederlands 😂

Yep. All we have is rain. They claim we will get some snow in a few days. We aren't going to get more than an inch...

Geen sneeuw zei je?

@@xHONGx hoe had ik dat kunnen weten xd

@@rarbin 😂😂😂

Great idea!

Thanks, thats a pretty smart idea!

I have ALWAYS done this. Ma taught me, and her father taught her when she was learning to drive on a 1940 Plymouth! I only drive rear wheel drive. My daily, also my only, driver is a 1990 Volvo 240DL wagon (estate). In 610,000 km and 32 winters Arthur has never been stuck. Knowing how to drive and good snow tires win every time

@@michaeltutty1540 610km holy

My electric (?)handbrake would like to know how to do this 😅

This is so true. I have seen so many people in trucks and SUV kept flying by me. They have too much trust in their AWD with all seasons

The amount of people I've spoken to who think they don't need winter tires because they have awd, as if stopping your vehicle isn't important, is mind blowing to me, especially being in Canada. Meanwhile, I'm blowing past all these awd, all season equipped crossovers with my small hatchbacks and sports cars because my tires allow me to have actual grip and drive closer to the speed limit since I'm confident in my vehicles ability to stop 🤷🏽‍♂️.

peoples false confidence doesnt result in awd being less safe. They are people who dont even understand awd. awd on wintertracs will always be superior.

I fully agree. I always trun my traction control off if there is snow on the ground for the purpose of enjoying the drive and keeping my skills sharp. Drifting in snow in winter has helped me a lot in understanding how my car will handle at Autocross in the summer. I my current daily is a 99 BMW M3, wonderful fun in the snow.

Yeah, you use all 4 wheels for braking, and thats the same for every car. 4:50 indeed!

I'm glad! I kinda wonder about it because snow driving is sideways and fun, but slow. Never know if it translates to exciting content lol

@@TedwardDrives Nah it's actually really fun to watch, the slow motion floating is what I felt when watching you and when having fun in my E39, aaand the tires last longer ;)

Legend! Yeah ground clearance is no joke when the snow is seriously deep. PLUS not all snow is equal. Light fluffy snow is fine since you'll push right through. Wet pasty snow is just gonna stop you dead in your tracks and rip off that nice bumper lol

I brought out the 2016 Smart yesterday (same as the 2017 Tedward drove recently, RWD, OD but with ESP), and the snow built up around the car was the biggest obstacle I encountered all day. We got about 10 inches of snow, and that car has 6 inch clearance... luckily the roads were mostly cleared. My driveway was shoveled halfway through the snow but was not clear, with a couple of places I should have shoveled before I tried to leave. Luckily I kept my bumpers. Lesson learned!

Had an 99 nb with snow tires for 4 years living in an area that averaged 10 ft of snow a winter. Proper snow tires and a bit of smarts goes a real long way.

Aren't there some type of regulations in USA regarding the tyres? Can you legally drive on summer tires during the winter?

@@the_skips yeah I’ve never heard about laws against it.

@@the_skips In the Canadian province of Québec, it’s the law to have snow tires on your vehicle between November and April. I wish the rest of the country would follow suit, as it’s just common sense.

@@warwgn3956 In Latvia we have strict regulations about tires during seasons. Cops sometimes stop cars and check whether they have winter tires. You can get serious fine if you wont change them in time. That's weird that other countries don't follow same procedures

​@@the_skipstheir are some Mountain passes where they mandate chains and /or 3 peak rated tires but across most of the US it's not illegal (though insurance will deny your claim if you wreck in the snow and didn't have proper tires)

Agreed it snowed in Texas a couple years back and it was my first time to snow drift and it was so fun I was out till 2am having fun.

But at the same time I’m cool with the sheep not joining the fun.

Nah, you just have fun at a slower speed then, at least that's what I do lol

no way! thats the perfect time haha

or yesterday in minnesota lol

@@TriggK4T cmon man, I was driving my pontiac g8 in that storm. Way easier to drive in that crap than a delivery truck lemme tell yah

@@Strongrie2012 oh dude that would be fun though a nice heavy rwd car in loose fluffy snow

@@TriggK4T it was so much fun, I just need a lsd in there and I'm set

Because it has a open differential

@@bidenisgod6978 open diff with winter tires wont get stuck easily

@@bidenisgod6978 wrong, just get good winter tyres. But americans still haven't figured out they need two sets of tires if they get snowfall lol.

@@henrik1743alot of people do this.... 🙄

@@henrik1743 great insult though.. I don't know what you're implying by "Americans" can you elaborate cause we have snow here too.. and I'm assuming the rest of the world does too.

Thank you Magnus!

Woke up yesterday and knew I had one job...Make a Snow Video!

@@TedwardDrives Great!!

You can get rear sliding in many styles

mmmmm excellent V8 music

@@TedwardDrives could be a 4 cylinder tho

i ja sam prosle godine driftovo sa opel merivom...zadnje gume su bile ćelave...

Thank you!

Well, they have uses. My all seasons perform best in rainy conditions and it's raining all the time here. In the winter we usually have you guessed it, rainy conditions. Now we've had the most snow we had in probably a decade. It manages pretty okay to be honest, but I didn't really buy them for snow. Now the most important point, if I buy two sets it costs more than the value of the car😅. I drive a Fiat Punto fwd shitbox lol, it's much fairer game than with summer tires anyhow and I wasn't gonna switch anyhow. Just don't treat them like actual winter tires. They're not. We get a lot of ice roads due to rain freezing on the ground, but at that point only spikes will save you (and they're illegal lol). 😂

You know what all seasons are good for? Learning the limits, cause unless it's all dry they suck the same no matter the conditions. They just don't surprise me with sudden lack of grip, which is cool.

It sounds like your talking about a rear suspension of a ZX/306 with rear steering induced by bushings! These things could be pretty tricky!

@@romaingallard8385 The car Im talking about above is a saxo vts

Lol we have the same birthday. Christmas Eve

You can buy cheap rwd cars if you save up money

That aged poorly

@@paulthorwesten7377 Haha yeah

I'm afraid he'll send his goons to execute me. I'll be monitoring the cameras!

@@TedwardDrives What is the "obsessed" way to clear snow on a car that sits outside?

@@VikramKrishnan404 Probably a heat gun to melt it off one snowflake at a time

@@VikramKrishnan404 To only ever park your car in a heated garage

Not when You turn off the DTC..

He has it turned off, he he. Look at the yellow round light in the dash :)

If you're concerned about it get a winter beater. This car has held up really well under the salt and snow but I bought it to drive it.

Thank you!

Yeah bro, we already know it’s gonna be a good video before it starts 😎

You've got insurance! It'll be fine haha

Oh no I'm not looking to deal with them
