The main thing I would advise you on is being careful not to overheat your base. If you leave the iron stationary to long and it's too hot you can start to heat up your base and melt it. That's the benefit of the wax specific irons... they usually have pretty sane heat settings.

I'd play it safe and roll with your best winter tire. I was just there till Monday and it snowed pretty good. Never know what kinda conditions you could run into. I was on all seasons and did great, even drove through some foot deep snow on some backroads.

No worries. It's a good investment.

I wish I could but I have to be back at work on Tuesday. I'm going to day trip it on Monday. My bad luck, it's a three day weekend with great snow and I have to go out of state for a wedding.
