My brother had no rear grip/traction with his 300zx last winter, He ended up filling a full sized spare tire/rim with lead wheel weights so it fit nicely in the trunk, worked great! alot of weight in one small spot where it wont move around and cause trouble!

Those type of tires are garbage in general. I bought my S13 with a pair of all-season tires in the rear and I constantly hydroplane in the rain even at 50 mph even though the speed limit is 65 mph.

Yea, I figured it out anytime its icey/wet and windy out the wind blows across the road the rear end is so light that it slides around, and when you feel it happening just slow down gradually
