just drive it. I'm investing in another set of snow tires. I'll trade it in for a vette before I incure any damage from Mag chloride. Enjoy it you could be dead before the summer comes around. Accident on my harley 2 yrs ago,stopped breathing on the table 2x so I'm enjoying it every day!

Salt? What is this car eating thing you speak off? We get sand and are damn happy about it. You know why? Because when theirs a tree in your grill you can say your driving green!!!

god i hate ct.

But I am driving in the winter anyway seeing as Its gonna snow on my possible delivery date.

A serious snow question where can i get a set of steal rims for snow tires for the 2ss?

My Maro is heading to garage soon too, unless I send it to California for the winter. We don't get a lot of snow here but it can rain for forty days and forty nights. May send it south in the race car hauler to a friends place. At least I can fly down and drive a bit. Something not right here the Maro winters in the warm south and I rust up here in the rain. LOL

She doesn't look like a beauty queen at the moment, but she will again by tonight with my heated water in the garage. Trust the Camaro guys and gals it can do anything!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Renee, that's good to know...mine will be a year-round daily driver...we already bought the snow tires and rims over the summer...hopefully, they will be good "snow insurance"...kinda like buying a snowblower and then having a mild winter...
I can only hope...

It's called a garage. I can't imagine getting around in the 168" annual inches of snow we get. Plus all the salt and sand. So in the garage it shall go, but come out occasionally for a quick spin when the weather cooperates.

Go to any tire store. They can hook you up. I just ordered mine friday. going 18" rims though and same size all around including studs. Most people believe all of Colorado gets a ton of snow,not true. I rode my Harley yr round.
