I was originally thinking to change over after we change the clocks back from daylight savings. ( ie first week of November ).
In view of our current weather, I may have to re-think my timing! Let's see what the forecast is for next week. Cheers.

TEAM PITA Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
One day I will rule the world. For now, I have to settle for this place.

The first snow fall always scares me, but I by the looks of the weather I think I'll hold off on the winters for another week or two.

Roads are not nearly as bad as I thought, it's staying above 0 so it's only wet and out there, not even slushy. The stock Conti's were fine last night and this morning, and it will be back up to 14 by the weekend. Looks like Evan is right to hold off a couple more weeks.

Yeah same here, I expected the roads to be quite slick in this temperature and with these weird "snow conditions". My Kumho's should do the trick once it warms up again, hopefully!

Maybe this weekend on the SVT with the babyseat. Rims look good so it is not that noticable. Next week or two for the ZX3 that I drive to work.

I'll wait for US thanksgiving weekend, wax it one more time and put on the snows.
That is if I get the f-ing thing running again. :rolleyes:
I have a few cars.
One for my dog. One that has no roof. One that looks good parked at the golf course. One that is being rebuilt by a guy named Nero..... will it ever be done?

okay okay, i had snow up here on oct 2....10cms to be exact...and i refuse to bring out my winter tires yet.....(needless to say i dont' have any, so hence the refusal to put them on)
