So... when do we take our snow tires off?

Can't wait to put the 18's back on... I'm starting to HATE the ruggedness of the Blizzaks on the stockies and its shitty handling on dry pavement. Hasn't snowed out here in a bit... weather has been nicer, but knowing mother nature, she'd throw me a whammie as soon as i changed the tires...

When is everybody retiring their winter setup for the year???

I am probably going to wait until late March... But I want to be extra safe because the stock Z summer tires are deadly in snow

How are your roads because here in NY, they aren't even close to being good enough to throw my rims back on.

P.S. Local Forecast is for a snow shower tomorrow night.

I'd wait until at least early/mid march. We just got some snow here today, so i'm sure it'll be there tommorow for you. Last year we had significant snow all the way until mid march.
