Winter is just around the corner (and has already arrived for some members). The shows are over so lets see what everyone does for the winter months.

Wheels: 15" steelies
Tires: 195/65/15 Semperit Sport Grip

I had wheel covers last year but I gave them to my sister. I'm not sure if I'll get another set. The steelies look kind of ghetto but wheel covers look so cheap. My wheels are getting a little rusty but I just doused everything in tire dressing to make it look a little better.

14" Steelies
185/65/14 Blizzak WS50s

Yakima Big Powderhound board rack.
Mazda Canda Hood Deflector.

I'm riding on a 2005 Fleetwood 'RIDE' board with my bindings being K2 Plasma's. This is a kick ass board.

same as the older f4i's. . . they just changed the rear section back to old f4 style

more comfortable for what i want to do with it as a commuter and some touring
the old style fair does look cooler though
 
Winter Setup: Factory MSP Racing Harts 2003.0 (not 2003.5) Silver Rims W/ Michelin Pilot Alpin 2 (215-45-17) Winter High Performance (not ALL-Season) tires. I couldn't stand the thought of changing the look of the car for the winter. I do use the drive thru car wash 4 or 5 times in the winter. I wash it by hand on the 50+ Degree days.

Summer Setup: Another set of factory MSP Racing Harts 2003.0 (not 2003.5) Silver Rims W/ BALD factory Bridgestone Potenza RE040 (215-45-17) High Performance tires. I'm still picking out my new tires for the spring!

i throw on a set of all-seasons, and put the top down :)
