winter mode

after another bubble blew and old man winter is here,i put my stockies back on. my car doesn't look half as good but drives 100x's better. after getting my rims off i noticed my other front tire had a titty too.to my surprise the rims aren't that bad just a few minor dings.just thought i'd share

it's amazing how rims change the whole appearance of your car...........

Winter is about utility more than looks. Hell, you can't keep a car clean in this crap. Why not get the best control you can so you don't end up all smashed. Stock rims might suck, but broken 18"s suck worse.

That is real nice, but what gives with the mud flaps. Paint them, or take them away. Just get them one color, black or white. Not cracked-ass paint color. haha.

You're keeping the CL and getting a TL!? I thought u were dumpin grease lightning for the TL, if you have both, you'll be ballin like me. It makes such a difference when you're not workin on your daily driver, cuz you don't have to put things back together every night The black stallion is in pieces right now I mean PIECES
