Did you switch to snow tires yet?

MyE92 · 10-28-2011, 12:52 PM

Just wanted to see how many people switched out their wheels/tires for their winter set up?

I heard there's a couple flurries coming tomorrow. Highly doubt it, but we'll have to wait and see.

Were supposed to get 4-8" here in PA tomorrow. If it really happens, I'm not going to be able to go anywhere in the 335, still got the summer rft's too

not sure if you are serious, but summer tires in this cold weather isnt a joke - they dont grip very well and should be changed out around now -- i try not to drive as much as possible in this weather since i dont have any winters OR all season - car came with summer tires on 193m's

be safe out there would hate to see what happened to dan happen to someone else

I'm originally from way upstate NY... I personally have found that in the area that I'm living in now as long as you aren't flying around and there isn't a sheet of snow outside the summer tires work fine. Temps at least around here in CT haven't dropped below anything I would consider dangerous to be driving on summer tires. May not be for anyone, but if you use your head and have experienced brutal winters year after year you'd probably find snow tires to not be necessary. Definitely not bashing on anyone for putting them on now. It is a safety issue and if you don't feel comfortable driving on summer tires right now clearly you shouldn't.

what about rocking all seasons?

tofu- · 10-28-2011, 03:43 PM

unless we get a week of warmth, from here on out, the only driving my car will see is switching sides of the street for alternate side parking

If you aren't driving at all why not just pay for some cheaper parking outside the city/state?

Slops · 10-28-2011, 04:29 PM

Mine is going on this weekend!

too lazy.

although it would save me a lot of hassle with shoveling out the car when we inevitably get a snow storm

tofu- · 10-28-2011, 04:31 PM

maybe someone will sell a nice 225x18 square snow setup with wheels for $400

E90 87ss · 10-28-2011, 06:04 PM

I'm still on summers until the temps in the day drop to 35 or below consistently... Won't be going anywhere this weekend though. High of 62 next week in philly...

gaalforce · 10-28-2011, 06:17 PM
