Drive Thru Car Wash
Has anyone had any issues with a drive thru car wash? Like with the spoiler or anything else on the EVO? Its pretty cold here in Jersey and i really don't want to freeze my butt off hand washing it so I'm looking for that quick alternative to get the salt off the car.

When weather like this hits, I always use the touchless wash. And you sort of have to get the wax if you want the under cariiage wash. I have NEVER had any issues with the touchless washes, and i don't run my hood vent either.

If you have low profile tires and the car wash is the type that pulls your car through there is a good chance your rims will be scratched. This has happend to me before. The carwash that did it had wax rails on the tracks that pull the cars too, and it still scuffed my rims. Just something else to think about.
