I'm probably tempting Fate,but this weekend the summer tires are going back on . These warmer temperatures can't be good for snow tires...

If we do get any snow,it won't last long,and I can always put the snows back on.

I really want to experience the Koni's on summer tires.. ;)


I'm thinking of getting the Mustang out of hibernation too.She needs a run... :burnout:

Put my on last week. I was thinking the same thing, why burn out my winters and the only snow we need to worry about is the big dump in May we get every year.

I just put my wheels on yesterday! I was sick of 4x4ing and using up my winter rubber. On that day it was 25C my tires were all gooey.

Damnage! I need new rims soon, old ones are messed and too small, I'm gonna look like a dumbass if I don't get new rims soon.

Hey mark, I don't think I've ever seen your car in person with the rims on yet.

Did you sign up for VUB?

You already look like a dumbass...:rofl: j/k Hak. What do you have on right now, factory rims?

Yeah, factory hubs more like it, my rims need to be fixed, but I'm not gonna bother, I need bigger.

Dam I have to put mine on soon. I bought 18's for my Integra in October when they were on clearance and only had them on for like 2 weeks and then had to take them back off. I think I am going to have to wait till the coil overs go on though so I'm not 4X4'n it...
