Swapped over to my snow tires last night after seeing the lake effect snow warning. Only good thing was I found out my summer tires/rims will fit in the tire rack I built last spring.

> Sorry, Salt adds to the problem, obviously if you sprinkled salt on your car it wouldn’t do anything. But if the surface was wet and then you added salt, the surface would rust dramatically. Rust is the transfer of electrons from one surface to the other so salt present in water improves the capability of water to carry electron through redox reactions. Redox reactions are the oxidation and reduction reactions. Rusting in metals is the oxidizing of metal to metal oxide. Water acts as the medium to transfer the electrons and salt helps the corrosion process to speed up the process. It is an electrochemical process in which iron loses electrons by oxidation causing the water to break into hydroxide ions and oxygen. Now the iron that has oxidized reacts with the hydroxide ions and oxygen to form metal oxide. These salts remain even if the water is gone and they again start rusting whenever they come in contact with moisture.

Enjoy the ditch! I got caught this morning in the Mustang. Left my house in Buffalo with nothing to worry about…2 hours later at work in EA had about 5" on my roof. Left at lunch to head home for the day and let’s just say it took a while.
If you’re around Hertel it’s not bad at all…head to the Southtown’s and report back please:)

Fuck that noise! I won’t have any time to change the suspension till next week but I might slam the snows on it later today. My car is so beast in the snow though I have confidence in its abilities.

Confidence has nothing to do with it. The rubber compound in summer tires provides almost zero traction in the snow. Today was fine because it was slushy enough that you were still finding pavement. If we get a snow where it really sticks no amount of skill is going to help you. My driveway is just barely sloped toward the road and with my summer tires I simply can’t get up the hill if there is even an inch of snow.

Welcome and be careful out there. Also heed everyone’s advise and be sure to undercoat your saucer.
