Well since the big snowfall here in NWA i've noticed a large build up of ice/slush in the wheel wells. I was wondering if this has any detrimental effects on the tires, since I see the tires rub against the ice. I kick it off when ever I stop at work or the house but since I drive 40 miles to and from, was wondering if it will hurt my tires? |

wonder if chainsaw bar oil will work on fender liners like they do on plastic sleds? if it dose you coat it on say once or twice a week you shouldnt have any problems with it.

just watch the snow in the rims if your use aftermarkets. they unbalanced my tires enough to cause a vibration till it cleared out or I kicked it out. (this last snow was really heavy STICKY wet snow and it stuck to EVERYTHING) |

Don't let them get too big. Recently my XFi had snow "side skirts" from front to rear and they were huge! One came off at 50 mph and my right rear went airborne when the back tire ran over it. It was pretty wild. |
