Why would you flip them back?

Because the average day time high for this time of year is 16 degrees?

Your winters aren't going to get ruined from a couple of weeks of 16 deg. highs. It's probably not even going to get that hot again.

They may not get ruined, but driving a performance vehicle on winters, when the roads are dry is no fun. It’s snowing today but there’s probably a few weeks of spirited driving left in the season. I agree with 370Z, I’m confident that I’ll pull the winters off of the Jeep in order to enjoy the rest of the fall.

A bit of perspective.... we don't have kids, I have a big empty garage and I can flip winters on and off whenever I feel like it and I have all the time in the world lol

Shit if I could spend an evening swapping wheels in a heated garage instead of dealing with my kids I'd do it EVERY NIGHT.

My back yard is always a bit of a snow fence, but easily a foot and a half piled up out there.

What a weekend haha.

Still seems kind of slushy... I'd say your still fine with decent all seasons/all weather, but I wouldn't go on summers.

[ExtraSlow]

Honestly "real" all seasons are fine in this.

Lol all seasons are good all year round here. Drive according and have no issues.

The roads are wet with slush not ice.

[killramos]

The good news is temps are that disastrous, so as tires won’t be completely hard as hockey pucks.

I would say so. I just destroyed my Subaru with the family inside in a multi-car pileup on the Cochrane hill. Hakka winter tires stored safely in my garage at home.

I'm in Airdrie...I changed my mind and got off my lazy ass to put my wife's winters on. Went for a drive after and even a bit of braking resulted in some sliding. It's going to be a gong show tomorrow morning.

I myself have an SUV with new studded Hakka 8s, but I'm almost wondering if I should stay home in case some dipshit hits me.
