I think it's more for me, don't want to be worried about the car sitting on the cold cement.

Smile yes

yes i did wash my Camaro yesterday at the fifty cent car wash. it is just around the corner from me. drove slow after so dont kick up dirt in the wheelwells if so have a spray bottle of distilled water i use to get the dirt road debris off. she dries nice. like the idea carpet under tires another good idea guess that was the reason why the left front tire dropped to 32 lbs others to 34, due to cold cement? had nitrogen put in all 4.
