My First Winter
This will be my first winter for the Mustang and I. Should I be concerned, any suggestions...? Horror Stories?

RE: My First Winter
I would guess that depeneds on where you live. If your in Socal and get ther annual 2 weeks around Jan or Feb sandbags may not be needed. If you get alot of rain and ice like I do in the PNW then bags would be a good idea IMO.

RE: My First Winter
Tires look like they are half decent. No? How many sandbags do you recommend?

I guess I'd put sand bags if it got really icy where I live, used to live in lake tahoe and used sand bags in my truck and it really helped, so i imagine it couldnt hurt to do it in the stang

Ha! I wouldn't even try it in the snow with the pirelli's. Mine are bad enough in the rain, let alone the snow.
If ya do, just make sure you wash underneath the car thoroughly every day or so to keep her beautiful!
