Got my summer shoes back on!

Did anyone else put their summers back on yet? I got them swapped out on Friday. Was hoping for nicer weather today for a drive, but no such luck. Much nicer ride than the winters, so I'm glad to have them back.

Re: Got my summer shoes back on!

I've had them on for three weeks. Then again, I'm not very bright.

Re: Got my summer shoes back on!

I wanted to get them on earlier, but since we had snow 2 Sundays ago I was a little worried. They are so much quieter than the winter tires, I'm going to enjoy my drive up to Wisconsin for work this week.

Re: Got my summer shoes back on!

i got them on 2 weeks ago.

a side question: what mileage do you guys usually get out of a rear set of ps2s? I'm at 6500 miles (including 2000 on winter tires) and the rears look like they'll need a replacement soon.

Depends on how you drive. I can usually count on 13 to 15K for my rear tires.

On a sadder note, weatherman says snow tonight.

No photos? Come on now

Also, I run the same wheels year round... it's my right for paying the high price of California residence

I am really missing California! I put my summer boots back on two weeks ago, and bedded them in autocrossing yesterday.

Re: Got my summer shoes back on!

I have the same wheels/tires all year round too but unlike Jon pay for it by driving the tank for a few months instead of the CS.

Re: Got my summer shoes back on!

I had a drive up to Wisconsin on the summers and it was nice, going out for a nice drive tomorrow but didn't have time to ONR the car today. I'll see if I can take pictures, but the front of the car is full of bugs
