You could have even more fun if you left your blizzaks in the basement and went out with your summer tires .....

Yeah, I'm waiting for my Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3's to come in. But the past few days have been an absolute blast with the temperature dropping xD

Just fixed up my old car I gave to my sister but she doesn't drive. New oil, brake fluid, rotors, windscreen wipers. Full bottle of washer fluid, full tank of gas, shovel in trunk. Can't wait.

Dropping temperatures and summer tires makes it a whole lot of fun and easy on the tires.

Oh driving on the stock Primacy's is too much fun in the white stuff.
I drove in this when I still had my summer's on.

I didn't have any winter tires last winter and I didn't have any issues, but I don't feel like inviting danger/problems so I have a set of Hankook I*pikes sitting in my basement.

You can not possibly drive on stock tires in Canada during winter. You get no grip, not safe.
