    you really want to have to switch from rims to steelies every winter and having to see a dirty call for so many months that it gets depressing.

    It's too cold here to be without snow. Maybe this'll make it worth it. :D

    It doesn't take that long to swap wheels..maybe 20 minutes?

    I hope not as I like driving in snow.

    It always seems like I live right on the difining line between different amounts of snow or rain.

    *Yawns* Time to buy some DVD's..lol. VA snow is nothing compared to what I used to get in NJ. Altho it is annoying when it snows, but its no big deal...I've had to dig my car out of 1-2ft of snow for days str8 when I lived in NJ.

    before this winter hit, i was debating getting something with 4wd.


    now, 2 months in, and i really don't see why i'd bother with it. this year has been an absolute disappointment.

    haha 6-12 inches. DE always gets probably half of what they initially forecast, and since the University doesnt like to cancel unless its a freaking blizzard im sure we'll have classes.

    At least the steeelies have been on the car since January, so no need to swap over.

    i got new blizzaks, and i'm dropped with the trd springs, so that leaves me with like 4 something inch clearance? I think the stock height is like 6 inch clearence, and subtract 1.3 from that, and thats me! i can kick *** in the snow though, even with the lower clearance, these tires will get me through anything
