I installed my summer tires on the 4Runner today, all 6 of them. Yes, 6. I mounted two of them on the wrong side and had to start over...
Of course my father-in-law was helping and my wife was supervising, so no pressure.
Let the offroad season (finally) begin!

My summer tires are already on my Explorer because my summer tires are my winter tires

My wife likes to “supervise” too. It’s not one of her more endearing traits.

I bet Jay Gatsby doesn’t even know tires can go on backwards.
Don’t be so judgmental, Gatsby.

She was only supervising because she was impatient to return home. We were at her parents’ house where I store the tires and she was getting bored...

I mounted my summers on Monday* - it snowed yesterday and hailed the day before...
Luckily I should be all good going forward.
*if I had a choice, I would have held off at least another week or two but stupid crazy bad luck forced my hand and early summer mounting was the quick and dirty solution

It just made me giggle and blush when he called me “cupcake”!

It snowed here yesterday. No summer tires until the potholes are gone next month...

There is a Fst up the street that’s all cheesed out- think white car, red rally armour flaps, red plastidipped everything, hoonigan decals, shocker, and vtec this decals all over it.. walked by the other day to see all four summer tires on backwards.. nice.

Hypothetical - it could be done for better off road/snow traction?
Although probably not but at least that situation is easy to remedy

My summers are up-sized all-terrain tires that do not have the “mountain and snowflake” symbol which is legally required from Dec 15-Mar 15.
My winter tires are very boring (and quiet) winter/ice tires with the requisite symbol.

Like this?
That would be cool. But I’m slowly building it up in the opposite direction.
