Shouldn't the word in the title be bringing, not brining?

Yeah. If it starts hailing while i'm driving I say **** it and keep on going. I've only driven it through hail once, but it wasn't damaging hail, so owell.

mid April here in pittsburgh, just a suggestion to those who use stock silver wheel covers, i painted mine dark charcoal, kinda gives the car a different and sporty look.

Put my summers on last weekend since we'd had a good warm spell, two days later wake up to -3C and some ice. Contis still managed to get me to/from work (mind you they were like a brick) and the forecast constantly said warming up.

Well, looking at another week of near 0C temperatures, and snow flurries predicted...I've come to the conclusion this was the worst winter in years, the **** just does NOT want to go away. Too late now, if it gets bad I'll just stay home mother nature wins out over taking a chance of ruining my car .

I'm in Arizona so there's really no 'winter' for me... But I'd sure like to have some snow once or twice a year!

Cheers to all of you who are about to break out the 'summers' again!

I'm on alert at work, we're expecting 10cm of snow and the second I see flakes I'm blowing out of here and working from home...it rained all night and cooled off considerably, but mother nature (ie. the bitch) starts dropping snow on this I'm convinced the hockey pucks...errr tires....will have 0 grip and I'll be a hazrd to everyone on the road . Hopefully it doesn't cross over since as soon as it hits the lake it's going to cool WAY off by the time it reaches NY...nothing good can come of that!

Lesson #1 with the SS: Keep the winters on longer than I did with the LS; apparently the weather has it out for me .

I keep the stock 17's on year round in Michigan. I clean them literally everyday, so they're holding up very well.
