When is everyone going WINTER MODE?

kamek · 11-29-2011, 12:14 PM

Just wondering when everyone's throwing their stocks/winter wheels on and cranking up the coils.

With the weather at this rate, it looks like I'll be BBQ'ing over Christmas

Alpine Whiteboy · 11-29-2011, 12:24 PM

I been in winter mode for over a month already... PERMANENTLY

OfficialBOLO · 11-29-2011, 12:27 PM

Still looking for a winter setup, but fingers crossed for a mild winter. Thought i could rely on the trusted passat but havent done any maintenance on it for a LOOOONNNNGGG time lol.

True that. I put my snow tires on about a month ago and they were from when i had a 07 space gray e92. I'm pretty sure they look better now on my 11 e90 le mans blue m sport.

I said it on that thread and i'll say it again. that car is a fucking BOSS...you get some street cred for whipping that thing around.

fdriller9 · 11-29-2011, 02:04 PM

Probably in late December.

Though it sucked getting stuck in that snow storm in October. Maybe I should mount up my winters....nahh. It's 65 degrees in Philly today!

bmwti · 11-29-2011, 02:05 PM

Since last weekend. Took off the rims raised the coilovers etc.

Lots of people do square setups for winter (225/40/18 seems to be popular too). I'm getting mine installed Monday @ Helix if you want to wait for pics.
