Default New Flares

I came up with this idea in the fall and finally got around to doing it today. I used lawn edging and rivets. It really is only temporary until I get some cash and time to make tube style flares. At least it will keep the pd from pulling me over for not being covered.

How are those tires on the snow and ice? Are they winter rated?

They are not as bad as I thought they would be. Although my Hemi has taught me how to ease into the throttle to keep traction.
