Unfortunately, when I switch the insurance to my summer car I can't just swap out into the beater when I get a snow day. It'd be a rough go if it did snow with summer tires on. I may have to saddle down and keep the car in the garage for another few weeks to be safe.

Firestone Indy 500's (rated higher than the sport comp 2's, and cheaper) are 23lbs a tire in 245/40-17
G-Force Sport Comp-2's? Those are 25lbs in that size.

Good call. I'll have a look and get a quote on those too.
