#1 of 5 08 CTS AWD does not like snow by cpramsey54 Jan 20, 2009 (5:58 am)
I love my 08 CTS w/AWD, but it just doesn't seem to like snow. I came down a hill sideways the other night and everyone was trying to get out of my way. The 12,000 miles tires are original, but some have said I need to purchase better tires. Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, what did you do? I love this car, but am ready to get rid of it if I can't get better traction. Replies to this message: bdyment (Jan 21, 2009 5:23 am)

#3 of 5 08 CTS RWD by ckulling Apr 23, 2009 (8:26 am)
Does anyone know how the 08 CTS with RWD handles in the snow? I live in Michigan and am considering buying a 2008 Cadillac CTS with RWD, but I was warned it would handle terrible. Any input would be great. Replies to this message: cosmo13 (Apr 28, 2009 9:15 am) cosmo13 (Apr 28, 2009 9:23 am)

Replying to: ckulling (Apr 23, 2009 8:26 am) I have a 2008 CTS with AWD and DI. In CT. we had one of the severest winters with plenty of snow and my CTS did very well in the snow and ice. With any vehicle you still have to drive safe.

Replying to: ckulling (Apr 23, 2009 8:26 am) I just realized you were looking at RWD not AWD. My daughter has my 2004 CTS with RWD and lives in CT. She has been driving the car for 2 winters.
