It's that time of year!

Put my winter tires on this morning before work! When do you plan on putting yours on?

I usually put mine on the night or the weekend before the first predicted significant snowfall. Given the condition of my OEM A20s, I will likely put them on at the first threat of any accumulation of snow.

Either that or December 1st...whichever comes first.

Had mine put on October 25th. The following 2 days it was 20c (68F) but we received 6cm (2.4 in) of snow this past weekend and temps are expected to be below normal this week.

I usually put them on mid to end of November, depending on the outlook. I am going to wait another couple of weeks unless we get snow that sticks around. I swap in mine in my garage, so can do it quickly.

uhhhh, never! haha
Living in Atlanta, it snows now and then, we were clobbered once or twice with about 12-14 inches in the mid 90's. Whole darn place shuts down, the people freak out like it was ash falling from a volcano. I used to be a Yankee so I am used to snow if it comes. We may get 2-3 snowfalls with 2-6 inches this year. It usually melts so fast that nobody owns a snow shovel.
