The rear tires are "free". But the fronts are flat, the tires and rims are frozen into the ice.. As in the ice is threw my rims!! I cant get any pics since my digital camara is busted.. I'm gonna throw down some rock salt later tonight. And then again in the morning and so on. Until they are free.

I dont mean to laugh at you but at the situation. I can picture it in my head and it makes me giggle. Rock salt should work make sure you wash your car after you get it free, salt is bad. Keep us updated.
