Ya I am running all seasons right now, with pretty good tread depth remaining, should be all right, i hope. I was kind of freaking out about getting winter tires at first, but i think i'll be ok without them.

Hopefully I haven't become annoying already like twhong or whatever haha...damn

oh, also, if this is your first rwd car - coming from a probe i'll assume that it is - make sure you're extra careful in the snow. find a parking lot and learn what oversteer feels like and how to correct it or you'll have an expensive adventure one day.

well actually, i had had saab 93 and a ford f250 econoline. I did expediting for a while and that thing was rwd. I never really had any problems, no weight on the back axle was actually pretty hilarious in the snow. RWD is great, even in the rain, the 8 breaks loose no problem though. We shall see when the snow comes!

U don't have a front plate at all? man, im to scared to try it here in windsor. The cops are...well there tight ***..i got ticketed for 10 over...

I did the same thing with the stock lip and 5 bucks worth of hardware from Home Depot.
