Do you have winter tires? How is it like in the snow?

I want a Shelby or a Roush but still keep on using my GT/CS as my summer DD which I'm doing now any chance I get.

Today the fuel stabilizer goes in the tank and a nice 20 min. drive and then under the car cover she'll be until March 2014.
Cheers to 2013.

that would be great. where are you located?
I recently purchased the polisher and the adams products. polish, correction and sealant. my car has remained somewhat swirlfree or at least low swirl per square foot LOL! but i'll apply the adams stuff in spring. It's the rims that **** me off. i need proper brushes. no idea what they look like or where to get them.

Hey Z, I bought the rims from a fella on here. They were still wrapped and boxed. I bought the tires from Kal Tire. Nitto Invos. I priced them online then went to my local tire guy and asked him to come within a reasonable range and i'd buy them locally. He did. Threw in a replacement warranty and 1 year roadside. tires and rims complete, i paid about 2500 cdn.

btw, i think i have decided to get my current rims podwer coated black. I went to a shop today that specializes in powder coating rims and was blown away! I've seen my car (coupe) with the black wheels and it looks MEAN. Brake dust won't be nearly as noticeable either

Kidding. Glad you got her fixed.
