I know, those control arms are so cheap, and the salt induced rust is so easy to get rid of...

It's not like this is some $100k garage queen. It is meant to be driven in winter conditions.

I guess that's why they put Advan's on there instead of Blizzak's, great snow tires

As mentioned earlier, it was the inclusion of the snow mode for the ACD that tipped me off. Tires are irrelevant. You're supposed to change tires for the best conditions for what you're driving in.

Like I said, if this was an expensive car, it would be one thing. But a 20k Evo isn't so special that it shouldn't be driven in the winter.

I have to disagree......


I have 200k into my evo with the engine,suspension, and mostly sticker mods.

I would never drive my Uber special Evo in the snow..... I read over on Evo M and they say that the Evo is only good in dry
pavement....and to never take it out in rain or snow.

I am sticking to you experts over at Evo M.


Edit.....(Lots of Moonshine last night)....I am still keeping this up because its funny.

Well, with that being said... I would suggest engaging the gravel feature and making a run up Poor mountain. I have a go pro you can borrow.
