Default Black 'N Yellow? more like Black 'N Polish!!!

While most people take their wheels off for winter, I put mine on. This is my winter setup . I will drop it some more in the spring.

UPDATE: SPRING PICS ON PAGE 6

Wheels are NOT Volks so please dont ask.



My first winter upgrade: All season mats from Costco



Everything else speak for themselves.





























For the guys who continue to debate GTE or NA-T........ This is where I stand.






Clearance into my driveway. Not much is left but I definitely will be going lower.




Positive or negative, all coments are welcome.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

Yes they are. I don't drive the car in the snow. The Trailblazer across the street is mine too. Winter setup is for the cold days with no snow LOL.
