Winter is showing up any day now (or, in my case, today on my two hour drive). If you’re in a spot that gets wnter, g et your winter tires on soon before it gets too greasy out.

Winter tires installed!
What is this winter thing you speak of?
Haha I do actually have some proper snow rated tires on my Subaru though. Should be fun in the Sierras and Wasatch for some epic ski trips!

When the snow hits here in MT, I stay in my home for 2 days, so all the crazy ass drivers, tourists from Florida and accidents have cleared the highway.

I'm imagining it being 71 degrees Celsius and seeing swimming pools in the sun starting to produce steam lol

Smart man. Unfortunately, I’ll likely be one of the first ones out.

At least you have slush for now. When hits -30 F all that wet stuff will be icey glass.

I was supposed to be getting tires mounted and balanced tonight, but the extra steel rims aren’t in. Costco was supposed to do the mounting and balancing, but I had to reschedule with them. Much to my disappointment, they didn’t answer their phone, so I probably look like a no-show to them.

I rather drive on icey glass then in slush.

I did this week actually. Sadly its been in the 50s and high 40s lately in suburban Chicago. I hope I don’t jinx it and it doesn’t snow. :)

I just ordered new tires! They are... not winter tires. But hey at least I’ll have some tread . If I stay here long term I’ll get some, but for now, all-seasons it is. I don’t commute so I can avoid the worst.
