Winter Meats

[StealthSpeed3]

So with the weather getting colder and no idea when we are going to see snow, i figured that it would be a safe thing to get my winter tires put on. Went With a set of Nitto SN2s @ 215/50/17, mounted on the 17" wheels i picked up from Jurgen.

Clean your car.

in time

 

[Workdawg]

why is there a domo under your car in the first pic?

I've always like those wheels, looks good.

 

[StealthSpeed3]

wanted to do something different from others placement of Domo, so i figured why not throw him just under the bumper?

 

[Picklz]

innnnteresting!

 

[Workdawg]

So, you have a Domo drift charm, on your FWD car?

I was hoping it was just on the ground in the pic...

 

[1Kris06]

quick! nobody let dan see brians car.

 

[Workdawg]

Oh, I've seen his too. And while that domo is pretty cool (he's got a surfboard), I think drift charms are dumb in general. And to put one on a FWD car is roughly 3x worse.

 

[DrWebster]

Wait, so you go driving around with Domo clipped on like that? He's gonna look like ass in about 3 days.

 

[mndsm]

Different... no offense, but i've seen about 100 other domos as drift charms. Face it kid, no matter what you do with Domo, it''s been done.

 

[dmention7]

You should get the long whip antenna and tie domo to that. At least that way he won't get all horked in a week or so.

The domo makes the car easy to spot though. Took me about a half second to notice it hangin' under there when I saw A Saturday, although I didn't know it was him at the time.

 

[StealthSpeed3]

with the exception of Saturday (Got stuck 3 times while delivering) the tires really kick ass in the snow. anything 5-10 inches and with enough momentum for the deeper stuff up to a foot) i have had no problems. Even when we had the freezing rain and stayed in 2nd-3rd gear didn't get squirrely once. So i would recommend the SN2s as snow tires for anyone looking.

 

[niterydr]

Did Domo survive the snow?

 

[StealthSpeed3]

yep, he's still there . Lost his snowboard though.
