Icy road + guy in front of us slamming on his breaks = the car I was in smacking into a tree.
Luckily, nothing but the car was harmed...well, I will admit I'm a small bit shocked over it, being as I've never been in a car accident before. Nothing that can't be fixed with a few beats from a hammer on the car though. Only thing that needs replacing is one of the headlights.
Pic below isn't the car we were in, but it's somewhat like it, only all the damage is on the passenger side of the front end.

Doesn't sound like a near death experience, but good luck anyway. No dubbed wheels during winter over in Illinois?

Not sure about having dubbed wheels in the winter, but we were in a 96 Chevy Cavalier with tires that barely pass the penny test.
