Is it just my tire,s cus when I press on the breaks when there is snow the abs kicks in as I press bit by bit or when I press fully because the snow is not that thick or could it be something else or something wrong with my breaks.

just some advice for you guys, use the engine braking method to slow down instead of normal braking when driving slow on slippery roads.

i do it all the time but don't over do it (ie. don't rely on engine compression to slow you down from 65 km/h using 2nd gear.. use the appropriate gear depending on your speed, and downshift accordingly, and brake in conjunction with using engine compression if you need to gradually slow down faster.

btw i'm sure most of you know but that only applies to manual cars..

oh... and just wanna say "be careful driving" we don't want to see anymore wrecked celicas...
