This was a bit sudden, I was planning on doing it next weekend, but I saw snow forcast and didn’t want to risk having to use my thrashed summer tires on snow.
This was the last season that I could use those summer tires, the tread was almost used up and there was some dry cracking of the rubber, so I am ordering new Pirelli’s for the next season.
In Minnesota we say “snow tires,” so I figured “winter tires” meant the same thing.
I am a sweet summer child so I didn’t think that people have a second set of wheels at their home in a garage. That makes sense though, if you have the space for it.
I just have all season tires and one set of wheels, and that’s all I realistically need around here.
