Might be premature to take off snows. I would wait till end of Feb at the earliest. We seem to always get a little snow fall around Valentines.

Seems likely the people who drive around thinking they don't need winter tires are the same ones sliding sideways and blocking traffic on the slightest of hills.
Like another poster does... park your car and save those with winter tires the grief!! |

Well, I listened to you guys' advice, and still have the winters on. Now, the weather reports show average temperature of 5-7ºC for the upcoming 2 weeks. Vancouver Winter Olympics be damned! I'll be changing back to the four seasons next Saturday/Sunday if the weather remains this trend.

Actually, I saw some wet snow at around 9:00pm today around Granville and 70th area.
I always keep my winters on until either March or April. I'd rather be safe than sorry. |

Hi guys, it's been a long time since I posted something here. Anyways, just ordered vorsteiner cs1 matte black wheels from jlevisw, hoping this can be my winter rims replacement.
