Actually it will do more than that. The extra weight will make the back end tend to keep spinning once it starts. So you're really only making stuff worse by doing that.

Sounds to me like 1) your alignment is WAY the hell off (either that or you hit a patch of ice on one side of the car with dry pavement on the other) and 2) you need a good set of snow tires.


Also, if you really do love that car and want to preserve it, you need a winter car. The salt on the roads will kill your body very quickly.
