Default +6" out there - Off with the winters?

Very nice out today. I am almost tempted to switch my tires back over. However, Murphy's law says if I do that, we'll get an icy blizzard. BTW: From Canada, so this topic does not effect the Texans

I am still trying to figure out what Snow tires are. It has been awhile since I have seen them [8D]

wait a bit longer.

i bought a brand new set of 17's last march, and put them on as soon as i thought i was in the clear.
that same week we got some snow.

and we're supposed to be getting some snow later on the week around toronto.
i'd wait till the end of march to be on the safe side.

Yep, -2' again. Was in the garage messin around. Took my tires down from the loft in my garage. Aired them back up. Cleaned the rims. Was going to change them over. Then I looked at the treads. Even though I only have about 5000 kms on them, I think I will wait till at least the end of March. The Toyo's from the factory don't look all that great for any kind of ice or snow. Guess i am just trying to speed spring up. Too bad mother nature is not listening.
