Your fillings are easily hurt. I have you thought about seeing a dentist?
No lie.
My snows went on today.
Early? Maybe.
But I care about @gtluke’s chickuns.
So you put on snow tires when you see snow outside, then take them off after it's plowed?Am I crazy snows stay on temporarily for just snow mpg gallon hurts to much to leave them

Not sure that's 100% true. Many winter tires are really just designed to remain flexible in cold temperatures, basically to work similar to a summer tire in the temp ranges of a summer tire that turns into a rock in the winter. Look at something like the Micehlin Pilot Alpin, Pirelli Sottozero, etc. These are performance snow tires. They're mostly made for the reasons above. They may get you through light stuff, but they're not a snow-slaying tire. Even the Xice 3 which I have has higher speed ratings than something like a Blizzak, a true snow tire. For our area where the snow is plowed constantly, the Xice and similar is what I would go with. Unless you live in Vermont, a Blizzak or other true, deep tread snow tire is overkill.snow tires really weren't intended to be driven on dry pavement so its not wrong. They were really designed around the places that dont plow and you just drive on hardpack snow/ice for 3-6 months out of the year . . . .

No they go on the day before and come off once the slush and mess is gone of my wife's car. She's essential but hates the tps but I don't mind either since mpg and I like trees
Skeeters need homes too.Hey Al Gore you better buy my tires because if no one does I am rolling them into the woods behind our house

Totally on board, that's how you do it. Saving a ton in gas too!Yes.
Now that my car has it's winter shoes on,
I will only drive when it snows.
Beats having to take them off/on all the time.
