^^^ Me too. Just for the sake of getting it done, mostly. I am not too worried about crashing at this point. I am a firm believer that the car will not magically slide off the road unless I am driving unreasonably, which I don't in these temps.

 

What did you get for mileage on them? Not too much I hope?

We get 15-17 on rears and double that on the front. Next time around we'll need both.

 

Hi Lainey, hard to tell; this is the first change out ever and I don't track winter vs summer driving. The S has a total of about 40,100 miles on it and it certainly would be mostly summer driving. For the Toyota, I think this is the second round of tires (all season) and she has about 85K miles on her.

hmm... what's the best bang for the buck for snow tires? I'm interested right now but it all depends on price to "workability" ratio... cause what's the point in getting tires that don't work?

I like my LM22's. They are a good balance between winter driveability and performance.

 

Duh..I forgot that you drive it in the winter.

 

Hi Connie,

I know exactly what you're talking about. Rain, of course, is dangerous because of hydroplaning, and the cold is dangerous because it turns those summer tires (especially Bridgestones) into rolling bricks.

Hope all's well. Best wishes.

 

Wow you guys have to buy bald tires in MA?

 

It's a rough economy.

 

damn straight and my tastes in whiskey isn't getting cheaper
