Stranded...stupid ice

Just got my Rx-8. Now I can't drive it out. I need some new tires, but the ice in our area is just slick enough to not let me climb the ever so slight incline. I had a hell of a time just getting it back into my drive way. I REALLY hope I didn't hurt anything since I ran it pretty hard. Swear I heard some banging in the rear and a quiet pop as I fought to move forward-ish. It only has 29k miles so I'm hoping that its still strong enough to handle some rough driving. Its my first day with the RX-8 so I don't really know.

Snow tires are a must. Don't wreck the new car because you didn't have proper tires!
