Almatti: Agreed. I think the harder the tire (these cars seem especially sensitive) the more road feel and perhaps unpleasent vibrations are transmitted. I haven't swapped out the OEMs yet as I will...

Thanks. This is something I would always do on my previous rides and didn't think I should have to do it now (see my previous post about modern autos).

I guess I was (I hate saying this)...

Yea. I have to leave the car overnight since this won't happen even after a couple hours in the cold. I need a loaner and that's always a PITA to get from the dealer.

I put a set of Nexen WinGuard Sport on the wife's 2004 Leggy. We've had 2 snows (24" and 11") since and I did a comparison with my 3.6r with the stock Bridgestones. The Nexen's were a solid ride in...

Same problem here. The dealer told me they are not adjustable. The problem seems to be at speed they don't have enough pressure to overcome the wind. I get PERFECT coverage standing still.

There is definitely a weird feel to this car. I have had the best success at minumizing the vibrations (shimmy?) by inflating the tires 36/35 psi front/back. This also helps in that feeling of the...

IMHO I think they missed the boat on that one. In the tri-state 2.5 Legacys are plentiful. In stock 3.6Rs rare and GTs available at about 1 out of 50 dealers.

Just about the same - 3.6R/2500mi/21.8mpg mixed driving with 22.8mpg showing. I'm fairly easy on the petal.
