    No Crap !! lol

    Drove home today right after it started snowing.. my usual hour drive took almost 3 hours... and to think were gonna get 8-10".

    I live off a road called Mount Parnassus..... Mount is in the name for a reason, I almost didnt make it home, lol

    Was saving for exhaust and pully, but looks like I might buy rims/snow tires...either that, or just be a shut-in for the winter :?

    BTW, ajustesen, any mods on yer ride yet?

    That's why I have had snow tires on my car since October 15th.

    dont go more than 16's though. cuz i have 17's whihc i used on my previosu car....and makes the car heavier....no doubt i get wicked grip...but it jus feels heavy...cuz they r wider than my stock 18's that i got with the car....

    worst tires in the snow ever...and not so great on the pavement either. They just feel good because the lancer is designed so well.

    the stock tires suck when roads r wet....hate em!
    too expensive to get nice rubber for 18's though!!!
