Title: Oooo, Winter Tyres and this "Tropical Winter"
Post by: nc35 on February 27, 2012, 04:01:16 pm
Just wondering if anyone else has taken their winter boots off....

The ED35 on PH is doing well with its summer shoes.

Took mine off about six weeks ago. Usually if it snows I'm in an area that gets it quickly, but been a brilliant winter thus far weather wise.

was going to take mine off over the weekend, but couldnt be bothered!

not looking forward to taking them off either, haven't had chance to take the wanli's off yet, so i'll prob have less grip and some annoying whining going on as well

must find a decent part worn place and get something decent on them

haven't taken mine off yet, for several reasons: sods law, and the fact that the summer shoes are on the monza 2's, which would react badly to sod's law  :grin:

Was going to take them off over the weekend but couldn't be bothered.  Supposed to be 18 deg C here tomorrow!

Last week it was about 15-17 Deg C in the afternoons and cornering definitely got a bit more interesting.  Understeer ahoy!
