2- take it slow, you should be fine, ur clearly not stupid (one wheel at a time). but i might find someone to pay $100 to grind that to a more friendly angle. from 90 degrees to 45 degrees maybe.

congrats on ur decision.....................you wont regret it!
Thanks for the response.

1) We only had snow on the ground twice last winter (both times were bad...but good excuse for a day off work), but I read somewhere that the grip of summer tires was bad when the temp was low (40 degrees)...just not sure how that translated to driving capability on a rear wheel drive vehicle. I don't really want to deal with maintenance/hassle for 2 cars (and I don't have a garage for the Camaro anyway).

2) The curb is angled a bit, but it is still a bit of a jolt. I never though of grinding it down more though!
