      My rule-of-thumb is to swap tires at Halloween and Easter... but Zombie Jesus Day is early this year.

        We have some of the ECS guide pins at the shop.

        As for swapping, I have a summer car and winter car for that reason.

            I swapped mine yesterday. Yea we will get another dump of snow, but it will be warm and the snow will melt off pretty quickly, it's usually off the roads within half a day or so. It's really up to you, I didn't want to ruin my winter tires for 1 day of snow

              I bring my summer car out on the may long weekend.
              That being said in the next few weeks my winter car will get it's summer wheels on probably just to prolong the life of my winter tires a bit

                    Well according to the mediam weather temperatures from:

                    http://www.currentresults.com/Weathe...th-average.php

                    you can switch to summers around march/april and to winters around august/september.

                              My changes are timed around two appropriate holidays. April Fools Day (because sometimes I'm a fool to change so early) and Remembrance Day (ie. remember to throw on those winters before you're a fool again)!

                                I swapped to summer wheels this weekend. We'll I'll be honest only two of them as I have somehow misplaced 3 wheel bolts for my summer setup :(
