Summer Tires, when to put them on?

kyleb350 · 03-31-2009, 10:02 PM

I put mine on last week. Good thing I was out of town for that snow. Fingers crossed we don't get any more!

Feels like a whole new car over again with the summers on!

i think now would be the time

I put mine on about two weeks ago. I did have to drive in some snow yesterday, but it was only 2 miles to the gym so I didn't have any problems. And the snow was gone by the evening.

Did you swap your CSL reps for 189s recently? Just saw them in your sig. Pics?

I dunno according to the iphone they are calling for snow on Monday. I'm heading up the Blizzak LM22 club for the meet. We'll be looking good for the photoshoot this Saturday, rolling hard on 17s.

Yeah, I actually sold my CSL's like last November. I was thinking of getting something darker, but saw a good deal on some 189's and picked them up. I love the look of the 189's on the E90. This is the only crappy pic I have right now, I'll be posting more pics after I do my spring detail here whenever the weather gets warm enough.

Have you had your new car out yet?

I agree, the 189s look very good on an E90! When I was considering wheels and an M-Tech kit for my E90, the 189s were high on my list of wheels to go with it. You car looks sweet man

I had my car out a few times when we had some nice weekends last month. Today is the first day I've used it for getting to work though. As long as there is no snow I'd hope to use it every day from now on :

Still have a couple of things to do with it like get my split armrest fitted and decide if I want to tint or not. I really want 230s too...
