Default Time for summer tires?

For those of you fellow nor'easters...

Well, New Jersey just had what is probably its last significant snowfall. So, looking at the high 40's to mid 50's in next week's forecast, I'm thinking about switching to my summer wheels this weekend (just as I wash all the salt off). I remember that my PP S-03's on the Integra were pretty hard in sub-40 degree weather, but I am really anxious to try the S with something other than the Blizzak snow tires. Any opinions?

from all the way over here on the sunny west coast I yell at the top of my lungs........................WAIT!!!!!

You've made it this long. Why push it too early? Another month and you won't question the timing. Now on the other hand.............your tempting Mother Nature way too much - and we all know its not nice to mess with her.

For my S2000, I'll change over this weekend or next. For my daily driver, I'll wait until mid-May.

We get snow in June and September but it rarely lasts long. April and October, on the other hand, often give us our heaviest storms.
