I don't know about everyone else, but I absolutely DREAD two days of the year: April 15th and today, the day that I switch to snow tires for the winter. I waited as long as I could to make the switch - it looks like it's starting to snow for the first time here this winter. My Blizzak's aren't that bad as far as snow tires go, but my car handles like a boat now. Can't wait 'til spring when I get some F#@KEN tires (Azenis).

 

great, someone dreads my birthday!! . oh well, thats what you get for being born the same day as tax day, the day the titanic finally went under, and the day Lincoln died from his gunshot wound

haha, that's true, friends don't let friends listen to rap-metal Only heavy metal and death metal (it sure would be gay but instead of a smiley face I feel like I need a little sign of the beast to put up here).

 

Hey bat, is it snowing up there where you live? Whoah thats crazy, there are no signs of snow dipping down a lil south to where I live, and we're only a few hours away. I'm sure you wont need them long on the car though, with our crazy kansas weather.

 

I dread snow too.......Atlest you drive your R,mine is parked for the winter.

 

Whats wrong with the 15th of April?

 

I always wait until the final hours of April 15th to file my taxes, never earlier.

Now that I've been home for a few hours, it's stopped flurrying. No snow stuck so far, so maybe I was a bit premature with the snow tires. When they took my (stock) re010's off this morning, they couldn't stop commenting about how bald and chunked they were. I still told them to throw the re010's in my trunk. I'm such a packrat when it comes to car parts.

 

I just picked up some steelies and snow tires for $75 from a buddy of mine. He had sold his stock rims off his R and the guy gave him the steelies and Continental's and $650 cash. He never used them so he sold them to me. I don't think the tires are actually snow tires, but at least all seasons. They will sure be better than the Kumho's.

OBTW, the rims and tires were a package from tirerack. When I called about them last year, they told me it would cost almost $600. I think I got a pretty good deal.

 

Snow? Whats snow?
