How do you clean these tiles from winter chunks of snow-ice dropping from car tires? The top of the tiles are very dirty from snow slush.

The best way to clean our Vented Grid-Loc Tiles is to mop the tiles with a mild soap and water solution and to rinse them with a hose. This will ensure any stuck on dirt and debris is removed.

Will the vented grid lock and/or coin grid lock tiles follow the contour or low spots on the garage floor where water normally will puddle or do I have to fix those low spots first? Is shimming an option? How?

The Vented Grid-Loc and Coin Grid-Loc tiles are a hard plastic tile. They will not contour with the low spots in your floor but will lay over top of them if they are small. If there are large low spots, you may have issues with the tiles interlocking properly. In this case you would have to fix the subfloor for the tiles to properly interlock. Shims probably would not work in this situation because they are typically used to fill small gaps or spaces between objects.
