I drove my SS in the winter. Only one winter, though.

Don't add any weight. The natural weight distribution on these cars is nearly 50/50, throwing weight in the trunk will do more harm than good.

I went to my local Discount Tire and picked up the cheapest set of 19" wheels that their configurator said fit my car, and then some 235/55/19 snow tires. I think mine were Falken Eurowinters?

Car handled great. I had no issues whatsoever. Surprised a lot of people how well it did in the snow.
