Pballer2005 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 my car will be dirtier, too fcking cold out to wash it. that's about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgogo Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 just washing it twice as much as i usualy do, making sure the seals on the targa are nice and lubed and putting the steelies with the snow tires on. That and putting a pair of chains in the trunk for when i go up the mountain pass since its a state law to put them on at a certain point. Then the sol becomes a snow plow haha. Also sols are awesome for snowboarding, you just gotta roll down the back window 1/2 and inch and hang the last foot out the rear window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannaBstuntin Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Normally I'd raise my coilovers for the winter, but I was too lazy to even lower them this summer. I did get some new all-season tires this summer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Chains, pffth. This is Ohio we are talking about. Screw the chains, wait a day, you'll need suntan lotion, then wait another and you will need a rowboat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, my Sol's staying exactly the same, not even putting an ice scraper in it since it stays there year round, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
