Other than that I have had no problems in the snow.
      Yeah, I get about 2 mpg worse with the winterforce's on then my solaris tires.

      That is one thing about the aveo, it really moves around in the wind

      Keeps you alert though, so it is not all that bad

It's still not an excuse, cause anything can happen but I know how to handle the car at those speeds.

      The bad under-steer works in our benefits during the winter though, and in slipper conditions I notice the car has a good aggressive take against whatever road conditions it faces as a pose to some other cars. I love the Aveo, I've never felt so safe in a car before.
      i didn't think the aveo could go 200 km/h, mine maxes out at 165/km/h going down a hill and 180 on the lift.
