I was forced to order my winter tires about 3 weeks early. They're set to arrive tomorrow and just in time as the temperatures here have dropped into the lower 30s.

I'm giving the Dunlop Winter Maxx a try (225-section square setup).

Yeah I feel you... I'm not looking forward to do the switch, I love my multispoke too much and the tail-happiness is just EPIC at the moment...

The days of having separate wheels and tires for the winter are behind me. I now just run really good high performance all seasons all year and just keep on rolling

My studded hakka 8 will be on the car this week.

The tail happiness is boderline dangerous right now. My summer tires are as hard as hockey pucks.

It was 68 yesterday where I am (NY)... 40 today.

Tires are at the shop just waiting for me to tell them I'm ready to swap. I'm waiting until we actually get an accumulation of snow.

The C63 isn't going to see winter action, but I need to put the winters on my E320 (or trade it off)

30's already here in the Midwest. Flurries forecasted tomorrow. Winter tires are already on the Evo, but I'm holding out on the AMG for another week. Here's to hoping on one more nice weekend.
