Mornings are pretty brisk.....anytime is a good time to change to winter tires. The nuts get harder to take off the colder it gets. (nohomo)

I swapped my summers for another set of summers.......... XD Will be swapping to winters in a few days. These wheels are 10lbs lighter (with tires mounted) per wheel than my old set. Craaaaaaazy.

That's what the driver of the Merc SUV in ditch said!
Saw lots of those on my Quebec City Skiing trip last year.
I put winters on my AWD RDX.

Just a light dusting of snow on the car outside. But then the rain made it a bit of a sloppy mess.
Hope to get tires changed on all the cars by next week.
Prep to put the S away by this weekend.

well, as long as its still reasonably warm, i.e. 8-9C during the day, I'll keep em on. I'm basically checking weather network every other day.

The old version of the RE71R were Re71s, and they were made in 1980s for the 959. Are you sure you had them on the s2k? XD
I actually drove in the rain this AM (it was 3 degrees). Conti DW fine here as well.

I know 2 people who had this car and both had major tranny issues of it not shifting. (one of them traded it in for a new one because of it and the new one had the same issue. lol) Just make sure the warranty is North America....

Prep to put the S away by this weekend. I had traction control off exiting 401W to McCowan Road south today, dat 4 wheel drift across two lanes It wasn't intentional, just forgot that I wasn't on summers anymore . At least my hands reacted quick enough by themselves to catch the slide
I've got to press and hold for a good 3 seconds before I can completely disable traction control. Although after that it's drifto time! lol
