maybe next week. Too early since the temp is going back up to 10-14 by the end of the week.

Just did mine today. My P Zero's where spinning on the cold temp roads. Definitely noticed a difference after the winters were put on. My winter wheels are lighter too...Carrera light 5 spooks on 225/40/18 and 265/35/18

Brand new Blizzak WS-60's go on the A4 Friday (see my 50% off post).

That means the P-car starts down a winding path of upgrades and maintenance for the winter. Too bad so sad - I already miss driving it.

It's coming. The A4 will get them in the next few days when it warms up. Last fall it was obscene what the local Audi dealer charged for the swap so I'll break down & do it myself. The BMW will get a quick dress up & service & then it will be for sale. But I am sure I'll have to mount the snows. The Porsche goes away to sleep.
