Here comes the snow.

HeartMD · 10-29-2011, 12:07 PM

This kinda really sucks!! Ill be in CT for the weekend and we are expected to get b/w 5-10" today. This sucks being it that I still have my summer tires on and have yet to buy a set of winters.

Yep, I'm at the Penn State game and it's not pretty. Lot's of snow!

M3SQRD · 10-29-2011, 01:49 PM

I've already bought winter wheels and tires. Only problem is they are both sitting in the garage with the tires not mounted! Didn't expect snow this early, especially in MD. However, I have another car with winter wheels-tires that I can use.

Already had our first major snow out here, trying to hold out switching over to snows...

And I was supposed to do an SCDA track day at Lime Rock today! Of course the fee is nonrefundable...

I'm in the same boat. I've been looking for snow tires and wheels but I really don't want to buy Sport Editions from Tire rack or something similar. I'd rather have OEM wheels but don't really want to spend $2k on rims alone.

We should get a Northeast group buy going somewhere.

Why don't you buy a set of used OEM 18" wheels for around $1k?

I'm working on finding a good set with TPMS. I've spent quite a bit of time on the marketplace forums.

If you know of a set, I'm all ears!

Hey JQ how have you been? Did you pick up a set of snow tires yet or is your M gonna get babied over the winters?? I think I remember that you have a 4 wheel drive too right?

EDIT: It's right there listed in your sig!

I had to leave my car at work on Saturday and have my wife pick me up. We had literally thousands of trees come down in my town. Time to put on my snows a month earlier than usual.
