I was hunting around on craigslist and talking to my mom to figure out if it was worth the investment...I think one of them was Blizzak (sp)

Is it worth getting stuck in a ditch or running off the road?  Winter tires are absolutely worth it.  Just look at it this way, when you're not on your winter tires, you're saving the treads on your all seasons/summer tires.  So you're gaining the benefits of using the right tire for the right condition and extending the life of your other tires.  It's a win/win.  Everybody should be on the right tires.

Bridgestone makes quite a few Blizzak models.  I would recommend you stay away from the LM-25.  Timmy and I both had them and we both agree they suck.  The WS-60 I've heard no complaints over.  Post a link and I'll check it out.

Finished running the lines for my fuel system.  I also ran all the lines for my aftercooler.  Found out that my water pump doesn't work though.  Now I have to buy another one.  I also mounted my circuit breaker for my audio system and fuel pump.

I've been lowered over 3 years with no camber arms.  Just fix your toe and your tires will last.

I'm at 2.8 left rear and 2.6 right rear camber and don't notice any odd wear on my tires.  Toe is set to factory spec.
