No chance I will drive it in ice or snow.
The suspension tuning is also different with the ZER package. It carries a different RPO code(FED) so it's definitely different than the standard suspension. No idea how much it stiffens it up but I'd bet it's stiffer than standard.

If you plan on driving it in cold temps, don't get ZER. Those tires don't like cold temps at all. They don't grip very well and they can crack when cold. The ZER tires will likely wear worse than the all seasons too. $500 isn't much if you're just gonna use it on nice or warmer days though.
