? For my East Coast Homies with rims

so im itching hard to have the new kuhmo tires mounted and balanced on my wheels. It was 50F sunny out today I heard its gonna rain tomorrow tho but do you think it's too early for me to throw my rims on? when do you guys generally take the winter shoes off?

Mine don't tend to get changed back out until late March / early April. Just depends how the weather is doing though. I usually give a couple of consistant 'dry' / non snowing weeks first though.

I don't take the stock 16's with snows off until there's no more snow in the forecast, the frost heaves have subsided, and they've patched the potholes that the plows and ice have been creating all winter. THEN the summer wheels go on. It's only February.

Like most, end of March is usually when I do. I understand what you're going through - there's a nice little turn when I leave work that I can't have any fun on with my winter tires.
