To my surprise Kristin’s 225/55R17 actually fits the wheel well much better than the direct downsize 225/50R17.

Yea, really liking the smooth ride. Though it could’ve also been my bent rim lol.

Bent rims tend to make things a bit Shakey. I am interested in seeing how my Mini is when I switch over to my snows on 15s in a week.

M3 reps, huh

If you put that on a forum... well, prepare to put your flame suit on

Well I didn’t really look into what they were based off of, I just wanted black rims that fitted my old tires and that was the cheaper option I was quoted. Did have that little hole for the “M” sticker but wasn’t planning on getting any.

Besides I don’t think anyone is going to think I’m going for an M3 look with those thick tires.

Funny thing is, it actually ironed it out pretty well, or maybe the bend wasn’t too serious. I didn’t even noticed it till they told me during my post purchase PPI. But now that I have a comparison, it is smoother. Also goes to say how hard the Solstice’s coilovers were and I got used to it all these years.

I’m not getting the Winterforces put on the Ranger just yet. It’s still 50 degrees during the day here.

It seems like the seasons in Michigan have shifted forward an entire month. This year we had snow at the end of May.

We’ll were already wildly swinging between 10C and -5C. My general rule of thumb is if it hits below 5C overnight, winters go on.

I like meaty tires. I wish less people would go for them thin rubber bands.

It’s all about those track records and bragging rights... there’s no reason my 4-door sedan needs 45 tires
