Changing back to summer shoes
Had a discussion last night while out and about regarding when to put the summer tires back on. I say not for at least another month, he says anytime now. I'm itching to switch but I don't think we are done with snow, even though it's been warming up. When do you plan on switching out?

Going to be at least a month for me. There is just no traction...snow or not...while the weather is as cold as it is. `

I figure mid to late April should be fine but we always get a good spring dump of snow so will just wait and see. My car is my dd and I need it for work so hate change over too soon.
Dragon22, do you park along 10th ave downtown under the Ctrain bridge? I see a silver camaro there daily, wondering if the person is on here. |
