DIY, Wayne, or is the coupe going into the shop? Is tomorrow a 'sunny Friday' for you? Remind me, do people at your office ever WORK on Fridays??

I was gonna put mine on this weekend, too, but it's looking like rain in the forecast (which I don't mind, actually). I may spend some time on interior cleanup instead; switch out the winter mats and all. The wife's vehicle is due for an oil change, too.

LOL! Yes, as a matter of fact it is a "Sunny Friday". Every first and third Friday of the month. So, yes, we do work on some Fridays.

I take it into the shop. I don't have room in my garage to store tires. But i have a major garage cleanup planned for this spring! I just need to borrow a pick-me-up truck.

I'll get the car and Murano fully detailed in May.

I put mine on yesterday. After Thursday's dump, yesterday and today were beautifully warm, so I made the switch and gave the G a hand wash and interior clean. I'll save the full detail for when I trust the weather more. Here's hoping no more white stuff (though I see in the forecast it's possible later this week!)

G/L Wayne. I switched up my wife's tires yesterday and will do the company vehicles this week. Forecast ahead looks great for us.

Putting my summers on tomorrow.

I could hear the rubber coming off my WS-50s the other day when I was doing triple digits on the 401 in 25c temperatures .

It will be nice to get the summer sneakers back on.

Switching to your 'Thursday afternoon' set are we, Ian?

I damn near put my winters back on yesterday since we have 3 more days of crap out here, but supposedly little or no snow, so I'm going to stubbornly stick it out on the Toyos.

This is the reason I decided not to purchase summer rubber. The all seasons are effective enough that I don't need someone to push my car in to the garage so it can wait for the snow to melt. Three days ago there was no snow! None!
