tall and skinny are perfect for snow

Tall skinny tyres penetrate the snow and actually make contact with the road.

Im from Australia, it doesn't even snow here and i know this shit.

How do you even become so stupid?

aussies with the saucy posts

RAW SHITPOSTS

also it does snow here its just rare

it snows in like 2 places in Australia...
and neither of us live in those places...

parts of nsw, parts of victoria, parts of tasmania.

And it also doesnt snow enough to need snow tyres 99% of the time
aka worst australia

depends if you like snow, i do. i also like having a distinct winter.

pic is the gf's car after a few days @ falls creek.

>Winter in July
ill pass, when i think of white christmas i always think of a NY December style

yeah we get the holidays off and spend them at the beach.

im a loner so i just sit in the aircon alone and shitpost

speaking of snow, any aw11 owners parked their car in the snow for a few days? how does the flat engine cover cope? does all the water just drain all over the engine? bit scared of parking mine in the snow for a few days.

>not spending christmas at the beach
does your country even have nice beaches?
i hear most other countries don't and if they do they are far and few between.

>calling yourself australian
>not owning a christmas rashie

rly

madcunt

>city people being allowed to decide wgat is australian

The water is colder than shit here in cali

pretty much this

>country people having the brain cells to make a decision
bob katter says wut, CROCODILES KILL SOMEONE EVERY 3 MONTHS

>lived in city
>live in country
>hate both
>want to buy small property 30mins from the city

Water here is about 20c on average coldest it gets is about 15c in winter

My problem with city people is you are all know it all fuck heads that hate australia and its culture, should all just fuck off to america

how do they hate it

Haven't you got another discord channel to be kicked from?

>your face when i post

>Tfw I like tall tires more even in the summer
Short tires drives like a wet noodle here due to all the bumps and cracks in the road sending them every which way. Fuck these short and wide tires. Can't wait to buy tall and skinnies.

...

>calling me falcunt
thems fighting words to be honest.

ignores the question.

answer me you dud cunt. i want to know. i've lived in the country and the city. and where do you live thats so country?

lets get him

How don't city people hate Australia and it's culture? people from Melbourne even want Australia day changed...
and half way between the middle of nowhere and you got a purdy mouth.

>massive arms from pulling the pokies
pokies have buttons and touch screen shit now

i think some of ours still had the level but yeah they where digital
Its like america

1/2 of the country is cucked, the other half are chad bushmen

i don't care whether its changed, as long as i get a holiday, in summer then who gives a fuck. as some survey showed, most cunts (probs those same cunts who want it changed) don't even know what happened on that date.

as long as i get a holiday in summer, then let the abo's have their way and move it. why do you care so much about the date the first fleet landed? :/

Fuck that

Gay marriage, adoption and all this other leftist marxist shit is bad enough mate.

green communist whites want it changed because MUST NOT OFFEND ABOS
meanwhile abos dont give one single shit

lol.

and thats why they'll get what they want, because dumb cunts like you can only respond with "FUCK YOU" when they ask for an argument.

couldn't care less about gay marriage either, if they want it, then they can fucking have it. doesn't impact me.

if they want to change the date, then fucking do it. make it the 3rd friday of Jan, bam. problem solved. abo's happy, we all still get a day off and triple j can move their hottest 100 to that friday. problem solved.

>if they want to change the date, then fucking do it. make it the 3rd friday of Jan, bam. problem solved. abo's happy, we all still get a day off and triple j can move their hottest 100 to that friday. problem solved.
>Wanting to make your country more cucked to satisfy a majority
You are the real dumb fucking cunt here mate.

abo's do care though, the non petrol sculling ones anyway.

just give it to them, couldn't give two fucks about what the day represents, to me and i'd guess 90% of australia, its a day for a bbq with family and friends, time to sink some piss and go to the beach/river/pool. never heard or seen anyone standing around for some first fleet landing ceremony. kek

you mean minority.
says the cunts who gave cucked all their casino's to the natives.

>meanwhile abos dont give one single shit
this to be honest, only thing we care about is
>more land more money more land more money more land more money

Lol im aussie u tard

then learn english better you dud cunt, you sounded american.

how about you just present a better argument as to why the date should NOT be moved then? or are the petrol sniffing abo's able to form a better argument than you?

its a meaningless date in our history. just make it the 3rd friday of january and get it over with.

do you even know who your talking to?

I dont want the date changed because it is part of OUR history, fuck gib cuck monorities an inch of wriggle room they take a mile then ask for too much.

Fuck em, wish we killed them all off desu.

Not oldmate but no wukkas, what does changing the date actually achieve white fulla?
I thought half the point of history was to not forget it, changing the date seems like a band aid fix of "ooo ouch lets sweep this history under the rug"

how about we just keep remembering it, learn from our mistakes and celebrate the country we have become?

t. a petrol sniffing abo

based adbo

because the abo's and city left cucks won't stop bitching about it and doing dumb shit until its changed and i'd rather have a bbq in boardies listening to triple j on a beautiful summer day without them bitching and moaning the whole time.

i don't care, just get the argument over with so i can relax in peace.

thats what im getting at.

like a few groups of abbos who are still stuck claiming every problem in their life is because of white people complain about it, you never hear a fucking peep from any of us that actually try to be part of society.

small minorities always ruin it for the majority.

well then get off your arse and go shut them up you lazy abo. we can't do it or they'll just screech even more.

Like i said, self entitled city living fuckwits who think they have it bad.
im not going to the city to try and sort that shit out aye?

>because the abo's and city left cucks won't stop bitching about it and doing dumb shit until its changed
Because your a fucking KEK

who gives FUCKING FUCKS what they think?

Ignore them, stop giving soybabbies what they want.
t. richfag

Fuck off

politicians care, because they don't want look bad by telling the abo's to stfu

WHO
CARES

I fucking dont, let the pollies fall on their sword their all fucking corrupt fucks.

you obviously do care, you've been screeching about not changing the date for the last 30 minutes.

You white boys have probably never been to an aboriginal town and seen how we deal with smart cunts have you?

they get beaten to death in the streets, if these city abos were to come out to the country they probably wouldnt last a month.

yes i do care about soybabby fuckwads trying to Erase history and cucks like you go along with it.

Stop moving goal posts, i dont care about the left whinging and bitching like a bunch of women they are but i DO care about moderates/fence sitters knee jerking to keep them happy.

>someone asks a question about snowtires
>multiple austrailians have autism attacks and shitpost tho fill the entire thread
Wew

i think it started with blame him.

cheers mate

well so far, the only point you've made about how all city people hate australia is about changing the day of australia day and letting gays marry.

gay marriage has fuck all to do with australian culture, so we'll ignore that one.
moving the date, well shit changes with time, attitudes change. guess we'll see whether it picks up speed or not.

imo we should move the date to whenever we become a republic. hopefully mid jan/early feb.

or jan 26th for keks.

>going to convince innner city hipster cunts to side with him by calling them soybabby fuckwads
enjoy failing then m8.

if you care, then get out there and do something instead of bitching on Veeky Forums.

pauline did

Fellow aussie here blame him also

>if you care, then get out there and do something instead of bitching on Veeky Forums.
And do what?

Normies dont wake up until its to late.

Fuck em

then continue to watch your beloved country go to shit, thanks very much. my 5 wives and i will jihad soon

bogan here, go for it we fucking hate them too.

>open thread because it has an interesting picture of a car

>best thread all day

I’ve been reading every post with an Australian accent. It has made my depressing Scottish existence a tad bit merrier.

glad we could help mate

Cheers lad, mind and no get eaten by a crocodile.

Its a real problem in North Queensland

youtube.com/watch?v=_ih1EuMLspY

Careful for em jellies too they will get ya

This

It also puts more weight on the area if tge contact patch, which is important to utilize the tires potential grip on slippery conditions

why dont snow tyre faggots just fill their tyres with water/concrete?

Hmm... that might work

No punctures, studs get pressed really hard into the ice, more weight, and nignogs wont steal them

>implying Australia isn`t just little-America

>croc is holding a beer
How did I only notice this now?

BECAUSE australia is a magical place

>Can someone explain the logic behind tall snow tires? It's like driving on a wet noodles compared to low profile summers
No shit sherlok?
These tires are designed to have grip in snow, so they have pretty agressive tread and soft compound compared to summer tires, that are basicly slicks with some groves.
Both handle like shit outside of the conditions they were designed to be used in.
Just look at these videos where burgers go over the speed limit in snow on summer tires...

Why wouldn't you get low profile snow tires? The tire width difference is only 1 inch in my case

Because a taller tire gives you a little bit of extra clearance

Clearance of what lmao. They will be the same diameter

You said low profile. That means less rubber between the rim and the road, ie height.
Snow tires are sometimes less wide because that helps them cut through snow and slush, vs floating on top.

You aren't magically gaining height by going from low profile to "regular" tires. The diameter is the same

225/40/18
215/45/17
205/55/16

Almost all the same

if it survives rain itll survive the snow melting and dripping on the engine

If you're then you said width, not diameter

With the same diameter and width, just small wheel/meaty tire vs big wheel/low profile tire the difference on grip is not noticeable

Ride will be a tad stiffer on the low profiles, your wheels will much more easily gather snow and the selection of low-profile tires available is much smaller than average/high profile

>tfw 25C-30C all year round

Christmas to me means beach parties with red and white themes, lots of community giving to the less fortunate and upbeat parang music. Not your dreary snow people music and being locked inside a house.

i always stay home at christmas because the area i live in is a shithole.

Cant wait to actually do that desu

>Tall skinny tyres penetrate the snow and actually make contact with the road.
I see you've never seen 1ft snow

why do you need that ramp anyway?

>what is unsprung weight
a heavier wheel make the suspension work harder to put the wheel down after a bump resulting in loss of traction.

We're talking normal driving conditions, not heavy snowfalls of medium-to-heavy weight snow. A foot of that snow would leave you struggling with any normal passenger car due to beaching and RWD/FWD

Wider doesnt automatically mean more traction. Too wide will leave you struggling on the slippery terrain, while they might be able to offer a bit more traction in the heavy snows. The difficulty is that road-winter tires are not all that good in the deep snow as they arent able to dig into snow like a more rugged all-terrain/mud-terrain might

"yo baybee i herr does bloos a cahllinnn toss sahlid ans skrambl eggs... oh noes"

Paint them green and they'll think they are water melons.
