Did mine already, I figure the temp is already getting down to 30 degrees soon so it could snow. Once I went mid October to get my snows put on a few years ago and it snowed on the way there lol. Figure better safe than sorry and plus my winter rims are BBS lol.

I drove to work yesterday morning and the temp in the car read 30F...
You should have heard those tires howling in protest... They did'nt like it... I've seen people use winter tires all year round, but not the other way around! |

Nikki how what sizes are your tires on the BBS wheels for winter? Do they perform well in winters? I'm very tempted to get 225/40/18 winter tires for my BBS CH.
I don't look forward the stock 16" wheels I have winter tires on right now.

I run 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 in the winter w/ hankook W300 tires, they perform decent with traction control half-on. Anything over 5 inches of snow and my bumpers pushing anyway.
