Thats the problem with these damn evos...tires are lawsuit bad in the cold, and it doesnt take much to cause a ridiculous amount of damage to the front end...

The advans are leading too many totalled evos in the snow, you should of asked yourself if the drive was really needed.

i highly doubt thats the WORST thing that could happen to you! maybe killing somebody in that accident or ending up in a wheelchair could be the worst thing to happen to you. and what would have been more cost effictive... shelling out the dough for winter tires or now the money to fix your car? just my two pieces of copper.
