Re: Does Type R handle better than Integra LS Auto in the Snow? (ITR0952)

I've driven both and the R wins hands down.

The lsd helps alot in tighter corners - less inside wheelspin = less understeer and the lack of torque at low rmps is really a blessing in disguise in slippery conditions. Oh, and it brakes pretty good too.

Of course the key to all of this is a quality set of snow tires (and winter driving skills). Just put on a new set of Blizzak LM22s abnd I cant wait for the snow. Honestly, unless there are literally feet of snow on the road where the ride height would be an issue, the R is unstoppable.

I say go for it and enjoy owning everyone else on the road https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif

That's easy.

It's a scientific fact that the R will be stolen 10x as quickly as the LS in snow.
