Tunerworks, booking two weeks out.

I just had Tunerworks rebalance my winters for the Jeep, dropped them off loose and they fit me in pretty quick. I was pleased with their work as usual.

They didn’t balance them originally and the crappy weights rusted and were falling off….

Yah if you can do rims loose everywhere seems a bit faster, easy money for them probably right. I got mine in in 2 days.

Loose rims, or new packages, were always the best to do. You didn't have to lift the car to pop them off, and if the car came in during a storm/after a big snowfall, everything was wet and cold.

+1, I usually fit people in same day with loose rims - often staying late to get them done

I love when people bring in loose wheels, i hate lifting cars and popping them off haha

I loaded the winter wheels with the old tires on them in the back of the SUV, but they still had to take my wife’s summer wheels off and swap after they installed the new winters on her winter wheels.

Regardless I had a booked appointment so didn’t matter. Bobby or Mark always help me out. Rob runs a great shop.

Has anybody heard of Gislaved Nord Frost 200 winter tires. I am trying to decide between them and the Gi-6. They are much cheaper and my usual tire guy says they are great.

Any thoughts?

My father ran a set of gislaveds on his XC70 for a number of years. They were fine, I'd be hard pressed to say they were measurably worse or better than most other average winter tires.

I went from Blizzak WS60 to the Nordfrost Gislaved's a few years back on my Subaru. I was not impressed.

How detrimental would 4000km be on a brand new set of winters in 15-20c heat? Already did the swap and looking at a trip south to Vegas/LA…

The drive through Idaho and Montana is cold and snowy at times. Would definitely keep the winters on.

I had them studded on a charger about 5-6 years ago and they were good but i suspect thats because they were studded. I then had the Gsi-5's on my wifes yukon and thought they were quite good, no complaints. I would say they were comparable with the nord frost's studded.

My tire shop says it's a busy time of year and that they are shorthanded. Weird.

Can confirm, was doing tires until 7 pm last night

Luckily in my fleet the summer tires are actually all seasons, so we can be pretty relaxed about the timing of the seasonal changeovers.
