Hey question for guys without the steelies...any problems with snow building up on the inside of the alloys? That was another real big problem with my alloys on the Matrix.....talk about having wheels unbalanced!!

I had a problem with snow/ice build up after leaving work drove thru it going to work, no problem. Was hardly any build up in wheel wells themselves. Solution was to go to car wash and melt/wash ice snow out. That was when NW Ohio got 2 feet of snow last year and was drifting. Only time so far knock on wood.

Well, it is freezing rain slush season here in south western Ontario. It likes to build up, driving or not, on the running boards and insulation. Seems like the wipers are designed to deposit the snow down the front door gap. I Armor-all'd the heck out of the plastic fender wells since I got it (what, doesn't everybody?) and the snow doesn't seem to sit in there too bad so far. I guess it is just one of those "live with it" situations.
