they're ok actually they're both the right side.Its mostly sand dirt from the ride home yes there is rust but i can bust that in the spring,I clean em everyday.but 110 miles in this weather can make you consider if a car wash is even worth it.(I want to find some stock steelies for winter) it'll be dirty by the time I get home.Its good to wash off the salt though.Its -10 out there today,might have to use REALLY HOT water.The tires are good in virgin snow but kinda slip an slide on the really messy stuff(slush).
On another note I think my torque converter is starting to whine.

 Got some shots dashing through the snow,maybe a candidate for January ROTM
She heard it rev and snapped a shot before I came around the corner ,then
