Question Winter car modifications

So, what does everyone have planned for their rides during the winter?

So far upper and lower control arms are on the list for the GT, but other than that I'm not sure yet.

I started my winter mods early.....should be done on Saturday. I'll fill you guys in on that when it's done.

Things that I'm now thinking about:
Wider wheels/tires out back.
New calipers, maybe cross drilled.

That's it....everything else has pretty much been done to the car.

Oh, maybe subframe connectors

That would be sweet yo.

I got your winter mods in my garage. I'll put a bow on it when I give it to you.

Oh, I also have 2 gallons of the 94/110 mix gas if you want it. I forgot to give it to you before you left.
