Anyone else not ready for snow and winter?

mah ha, this lady has been trying to get out of our parking area since 7 this morning. It's 9 now and she has only moved a foot.
 
i ended up going to work. even with all the snow i was able to walk over to my desk.

At least you have a LSD to help somewhat with traction. 1 wheel peel NFTW
 
Got stuck today driving to my garage to change the tires. Blizzaks are on and its all good. The potenzas are useless in the snow.
 
summer tires suck in the snow a lot because the rubber just goes solid. a couple weeks back when it was getting down to freezing here in Rochester my potenzas were hurting pretty bad. wheelhop like crazy even with solid front/rear mounts.
 
Drove to Kelly's today. So nice having the snow tires on.

The best part was watching all the SUV's loosing traction and wiping out. There were a good number of cars in the ditches and Rt 45 was trashed. Sidewind + packed snow = fun times. Boy am I glad the p5 isn't lowered, though. I heard the front end hitting enough snow as it was!
 
yup, got a aluminuim floor jack and a matco torque wrench in a heated garage. not doing much tomorrow. just PM me and we can swap em out.

I am serious. Ken saw an attempt of my efforts the other night. Hot Pink would be cool too, actually.

I picked up a green rattlecan from your favorite Menards but its too 'construction safety green' for my liking. not lime enough. i think im gonna try to get a can of PPG or someshit and use a HVLP gun.

I am coming down to C-U next Friday man, you gonna be around?

For once I will... I can hang out after I get out of work around 4:30ish.

More on topic, I still need to take the MSM wheels off and put my old stock wheels back on... Driving in the snow with low-profile tires isn't too fun...
 
haha awesome.... at least they are staying within the family! Oh and I will for sure be up in Chicago for the week of the 17th, would you be free any of those days? it has been a while since I have seen you or anyone from Mazdateamland.

Well, it was nice of you to continually invite us to your gay orgies, but as a group, we felt it best to decline.

Its 40 degrees today. Hooray global warming. You're really helping me spend more money on booze and video games, and less on proper tires for the season.
