Moving from Miami to Atlanta for 3 months from Nov-Dec. Any precautions for the car?
Im gonna be moving up to Atlanta during Nov-Dec for 3 months. Ive lived in Miami my whole life so i dont know how to deal with real winter conditions. For the guys who are in Atlanta is snow a problem up there? Should i put snow tires on the car? Right now im on aftermarket 19's on PS2 should i change back to OEM 18's on PS2? The roads are alright up there to drive the car everyday?
Im asking cause the M3 will be my daily driver and i need it to run back and forth between dekalb medical center and inner harbour hospital. Im living right in the buckhead area. I really dont wanna have any issues when im up there or have an accident so thats why im asking. Any help on what precautions or what to know during the winter months in Atlanta would be really appreciated.

The average annual snowfall (include sleet and ice pellets) for Atlanta is 2 inches, and it's usually gone in a day or less. You don't need snow tires for that, and if you were to put them on, you'd be suffering with tires that don't handle as well on dry or wet pavement virtually all the time.

Snow is not an issue in ATL. Might snow once a year and the city completely shuts down. Im in Buckhead myself.
