    Why not take the lip off and throw on winter tires for
    a few months instead of trashing your car?

        I wish mine was that easy to take off. Tucked bumpers makes the bolts for the mounting brackets of the iS airdam almost impossible to get to.

            I have a spare set of bottles, I just don't have the cash to have snow tires put on them. But my wife takes me to work if it's really nasty, and I don't go anywhere that much when the weather is really bad anyway, so my car is ok to just sit the bad patches out.

                  I went for some cheap Semperit Winter Grips @ $37 each from Mavistire.com, they work great, we just had about 4-5" the other day and I made it to work
                  no problem, especially without the front lip.

                        The brave comment was for me leaving the lip on, I know lots of guys have ran through more snow than that, just not with a reiger lip. It will come off when I see another snow. I can take it off in a moments notice, so im not worried.

                        The window is open because i dont give a fuck about the cold, I like to have the window open when I drive in the snow cause I usually have all my snowmobile clothes on.

                        And those are going to be my snow tires for now. I had some real shitty tires on my b-caps that did nothing in the snow. I am pretty happy with these goodyears though.

                          I don't care about the cold either, but i am normally wearing a short sleave shirt freezing my ass off.

                          Glad your happy with my tires, and I'm disappointed with your old ones. :-D

                              Last year:


                              Don't have any of this year, but it's just as bad, if not worse.
