Switching to summers?

Postby remarquian » Sat Apr 11, 2009 9:14

So when are you going to switch to Summer rubber?

I'm planning, tentatively, like the 20th.

Well, that is if the 15 day forecast sez it's ok on the 19th.

Probably today- for the second time. I was on them for about a week or 2 but then that snow storm that hit Wednesday afternoon last week put me back on them.

I bolted mine up last night. I doubt I'll have to take them off again until October/November.

HAHAHA! My car is still on summers and I don't plan on driving it all weekend!

Before the plows went through The Ranch, my VUE on its all season tires was sliding around.

I put the winter tires (only the front 2) back on my VUE. The all-seasons are horrible in this slush. After the light turned green, I was lucky to get through the intersection before the light turned red.
