Waiting for Spring???

When are you guys putting your regular wheels/tires back on?

I'm trying to schedule some work to my car including body kit and stuff but want to schedule it around the time that my wheels are going back on.

Boston folks....feel free to chime in.

My wheels have stayed on all winter but i have a beater to drive so i guess that doesnt count.
When i didnt have a beater, i put em back on the first week of april. I live in NE too so i know exactly what your going through.

Hmm I was thinking sometime in Mid-March as well. I hope all the sand and salt is going to be off the roads by then. I figure if I put it in Mid-March. A week or so in the shop...I should have the wheels and the car done the last week of March. Hopefully that means no more snow and no more sand and salt.

I usually ride wheels all year round. I hate the way my car looks on OEM 18's or 19's with the way my car is modded (kit etc) Usually right after the snow clears up and the salt is too a minimal I just go and was the car anyways.

I'll be putting my summers on when the temps are steadily in the 50s.

I would wait until April for those who do not have a winter beater. Its definitely still going to snow throughout March.
