Winter Modes!?

So who/when is everyone planning on putting their EVOs into winter-mode!? Its starting to be that time of yea to start thinking about winter! [or at least i know here in NE we are!]

Im not sure when im going to be putting the EVO into winter-mode.Personally, this is my first year putting the EVO into its winter "attire"

Also, what does your winter mode consist of!?
Pics welcome!


Im just putting on some Enkei RS-6's wrapped in blizzak WS-50s, my old front lip (that got ripped off last winter) possibly taking the wing off, and i havent been able to get ahold of a cheap roof rack yet :-/ bummer but im still looking!

Getting an undertray hopefully in time and hopefully getting stock suspension before something breaks. Buy 2 new RE960s for the fronts and I'm set for the winter.
