Any feedback yet SDC2R? I would consider something like that in the future if they're still good in the snow.... and if they make a 155/80/13 size

lawls
they're very smooth given current conditions, way better feedback than a full winter and much less vibration thru the wheel feedback. grip is great for what they are.
I'll wait for your full report after a big snow storm to see how it performs vs. winter tires.

I've been deceived pretty much all my fucking existence of the EL that the car doesn't have enough 'sound proofing'... (It ain't no luxo-level soundproof, but it'll do...)
Riding on the fucking Michelin Xi3's I can actually HEAR my passenger without speaking Asian decibels at highway speeds... 
Fucking BFG Advantage T/A all seasons and anything prior to that were loud... I had no idea..........
</TheMoreYouKnow>
Now to start hunting for decent (Touring?) All-Seasons for spring...

Brought out the winter beater today Still on my summers lol. Wasn't gonna chance it this year lol I always wait too long and it snows before I get them on. Plus I had to pull on of mine down because a customer wanted to see the colour of the wheels before he bought a set, they were the only ones I had around lol. Figured I already had them down may as well throw them on. i like this car XD Violent, u work at a tire shop?
Thanks 
Hyundai dealership actually.

I did winter tires swap on 5 cars this past Saturday. The summer car needs a car wash and it's going to sleep. Took off the insurance as of today. Winter Beater daily the next few months will suck Can't wait till Spring 2015
Next few months? It's half a year for me Won't be putting the car back on the road till May 1'2015

That's amazing, let's assume HST paid on car is approx $5,200 (regardless if you traded in another car for it offset, the HST was paid at one point) + $5,000 depreciation hit over 5 years (assuming he owns it that much and I am being conservative,chances are it will be higher), plus insurance of $600/year @ 5 years = $3,000 plus gas at 1,500 km @ 15L/100km @ $1.50/L for 5 years = $1,687, + sparco car cover $160 + HST = $181
So roughly $2/km driven  or $3k per summer to own this ornament.

I'd add in $0.47/km for gas and maintenance Gas was covered, maintenance isn't because he isn't going to do any, he will sell it before the big service comes up 
Sell it for what though?
