Well I was outside most of the day. The plant had a major upset and we had to take the unit down.

 

my winter beater doesnt have heat at all. soo cold. haha

 

well what are you waiting for. take one for the team and help the weather warm up.

 

BTW who is the ******* idiot i see driving around in the cobalt SS/SC with custom paint, he has black base color, and the top half (from his door handles up) is red. he is on fricking stock tires, SUMMER ******* TIRES, he was in the parking lot at my work trying to get to the exit and it took him like 2 minutes in a deserted parking lot, he just sat there spinning his tires. i wanted to go kick him in the teeth! **** he choked me, why is he even driving...anyone know who this tool is?

/rant

 

nope i haven't even scene one of those come into **** either. no two tones. we've had a few idiots come in on stock tires and i just shake my head as they try and get into our drive through. its quite funny.

 

Of the countless ss/scs I see at mt. royal, I've only seen one other with winter rims.

 

guy drives like a fucktard to... if u look at that car its mangled... keep an eye out for it you'll laugh

 

I'm still waiting to here how yah broke your nose...

 

didnt u read above!? he snuck up on me and scared me therefore i punched him in the nose!!

 

 

Lmfao

 

you dont need steelies to run winter tires, they will fit on the stock rims.

 

^^ dude u must be running like a 40 sidewall winter tire then.... when i had my winters i think they were 215/65/16.... for winter the larger sidewall the better...

 

alan, u better show up tomorrow you bastage!! haha!!

now someone buy my subs!

 

i'll be there!! i need cash for mods i wanna buy.... i need roughly 3g's!

 

silly boy, i worked at dt distributions, the major tire wholesaler in northern alberta for 2 years.


side wall has little to no affect on snow tires, the tread compound, overall softness, and sipping are the main intrigal parts in a snow tire. INFACT on a lower sidewall, the weight of the car opens the sips more allowing for BETTER traction, not to mention the fact u lose almost no handling ability when u stay at ur normal tire size.

 

thats easy to get if u work a little overtime, one of our truck drivers pulled in 2700.00 in one cheque

 

well u leanr something new everyday!

ahaha well id work overtime like everyday then! ahaha
how much is starting wage? (pm me if u dont wanna disclose)

 

lol depends.. i think he'll start you at 16.00..

 

sounds good and is is possible to work overtime everyday? (hour give or take)

 

heres a question splitimage........ will a lowered car affect how it acts in snow??? my sunfire is slammed, and on studded winter tires, and it completely sucks in snow...... not from bottoming out, but from no traction, and spinning.

 

yea.. work all u want...

 

ahaha sick

 

thats a really good question, and tough really.

first off, with studdded tires i would NEVER run them on a lowered car.

secondly, a studded tire is still only as good as the tire thats is studded (i.e. 25$ canadian tire special winter+studs doesnt = good)

More then likely your traction loss has to do with the camber. If you dropped it and didnt add a camber kit your basically driving like this / \ which greatly takes away from the tires ability to control the car.What it can also do is open interior sipping while leaving the outside of the tire almost weightless, greatly reducing its ability to attain and retain traction. If thats the case, your tires are affectively pulling inwards on themselves, yet at the same time are on an angle that forcefully pushes then away. its like 2 siblings fighting over a donut, not good

 

well i bought the car this way, its lowered on AGX Adjustables and TEIN springs....... on my summer wheels and tires they are wearing normal, and it tracks completely straight (more so that my year old cobalt) ..... my wheels dosnt look / \ at all.....
