Put the snow tires on today

What a difference, not seeing rubber right to the wall of the wheel well, and 14's look so funny hehehe. Leaving the car lowered for now, if and when the snow comes down we'll see how it does, shouldint be too bad with snow tires on it....We are suppose to get 10cm here tonight in Oro Medonte

My winter Hakkas and steelies are going on this Tuesday. It'll be sad day, having to put my Michelins and Konigs away until March.

Damnit man, I was going to put my steelies back on but
after inspecting the tires I discovered a large crack on the inside wall of one of the tire like someone put a knife through it , this is the third time this had happen on different tires so I got to make another complaint and get a discount on another brand tires...
