Question for you guys generally when do you throw on the winter tires. I just purchased new winter tires for the first time and now I do not know when would be the best time for the install should i wait as long as possible b4 installation. I do live in Canada, or should I install sooner then later?
What do you guys do? |

Then when it’s time to go, you feel like the shifter doesn't want to move, but that’s after you press and release the clutch and it feels like a giant marshmallow under your foot, then you almost hit curbs getting out of the driveway because the power steering fluid is like maple sirup and the steering doesn't really feel like returning to its center position. oh yea, its quite the experience Oh yea, and then after 15 minutes, the heater starts blowing warm air! Just when you pull over at your job's parking lot! This post has been edited by Rayme: Nov 7, 2007 - 9:38 AM -------------------- ![]() -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |
