Yeah...they say this winter is going out like a lion...so I'm looking first or second week of April...also the weatherman has been wrong quite a bit this season in the GTA...probably one of the most unpredictable weather patterns we've had in a while...

lowering my car and putting on summers mid april.

with all the pot holes and salt, i rather not put my summer set through it. i think i'm too old not to contain my spring excitement for the sake of a couple of extra weeks.

word of advice, wait until you start seeing pot holes being covered up, and i think that would be a good time to put your summers on. but that's just my opinion since i slam my car and i have custom 19s.

Won't be putting the summers on until late April or early May.

Been a really bad winter and I know we will have a couple of freak snowstorms in April or May.

However, I am a bit jealous of the Toronto folks who are mounting their summers now (early-mid March)

I've never seen potholes in most of the areas I drive so once my springs and shocks come in, in the next couple of weeks I'll switch to summers.

When the weekly highs average 7 degrees Celsius or higher. Kinda like the reverse for putting on winters.

Agreed! Some parts of the 401 are, as Jeremy Clarkson likes to put it, "like a teenager's face."
