Good luck Mojoyaris and post some pictures of you in the event.

best way to get a snow storm in march is to throw on the summer rubber!

but both of our cars have all season rubber, so even if it snows, we're not up sh!t creek

Speak of the devil - it snowed here quite a bit today, lol. But my 'summer' tires are all season, so it wasn't that bad.

Seriously, eh? At least they're "all seasons".

But wow, *so* nimble... turning, braking... dropping 5lbs off each corner is awesome! I promise that I'll post some pics eventually... once it's cleaned up and waxed! Ha! But seriously, I'm just not super impressed with my look of the Toyota Canada springs + rear seat taken out + 205/45/16 tires... I got gap.

Barber... you have your coilovers on yet? I'm guessing no. And yes, I could lower it some more by carrying around more crap, but that kinda defeats certain purposes, yes?

WeeYari... nice... I painted mine last summer, and they're rusty again. Grrr! I'll be doing it again soon. I just wanted to get my summer rims on quick for a road-trip to Toronto this weekend.

And yes, snowing today in Ottawa!

marcus... I have 205 and no rub, but on a 6.5" wide rim. 7.5" wide sounds pretty wide! And will add weight.

RS Spoiler

Been trying to obtain this from the seller since last November. Finally got it this month and mounted today. Looks pretty good for $70.
