      Yea, what sucks is I'm going in at midnight tonight . So it will probably be slick, just have to smoke the tires a little down my street to warm them up..lol

            I'll switch soon, but the 13's I have now are an all season, so it won't be horrible.

                Mine went on yesterday. The tires on my 17s were shot though. Driving in rain on the highway has been a puckering experience lately.

                On the plus side, I forgot how much nicer the car rides on 16s. Doesn't handle as well, but the NVH is way down.

                            Snow is comming down pretty good already . I went o my storage unit ... Looked at my tires and it started snowing. So I said screw it , should have a fun drive in tonight and I'm working till 4pm so roads should be fine by then . Hardest thing is going to be staying off the happy button because I haven't gotten re-tuned yet.
