Hakkepeliita calls their stud system "Eco Stud". Apparently the soft cushion under the seat of the stud reduces dry pavement noise and reduces damage to the road surface (thus making it "Eco"?).
Too late. Winter's just about over.Just waiting for some serious snow to evaluate the tires.
Yeah, I've now virtually assured that this will be the warmest winter on record.Too late. Winter's just about over.
Well, I could trade my JSW in on a Hummer, which will help with global warming....does that work for you?Is there anything you can do about the cold temps? Any help would be appreciated.
Yes. The H1 works fine for me. The baby bull**** H2 and 3 are gassers. Keep it real.Well, I could trade my JSW in on a Hummer, which will help with global warming....does that work for you?
That's just it....we don't get much wet, heavy snow. Just lots of mornings, like this morning, where you wake up to another 3" of lake-effect fluff. In fact, you should be laughing that I need a snowblower at all. Most of the time it's so light that all you need is a pusher shovel, and one swoop will clear the whole width of the driveway. The stuff that the plows toss is the not-so-fun part, which was part of the rationale for getting a snowblower. The other was that the other tenant of my duplex is a single woman who doesn't apparently own a shovel, so I'm doing the whole 'U' drive, rather than just my 50-foot straight shot of concrete. But a 2-stage would be overkill. The single-stage is light and fast.single stage in MI????? Sorry but WWAAHHHAAAA HHHAAAA HAA!!!!! lmao. Hope you don't get wet snow and a heavy driveway end....
Give me a 2 stage 13hp any day.
Bump.
We hit something like 56 degrees here Thursday.
Who'll be the first to put their summer wheels back on?
+1 on the Michelin Primacies. Last winter (2009-2010) I ran the Golf with those, and was VERY impressed.Volks:
I guess we are just using the same thread for when we take them off, too? I took the Blizzak WS60s off today and put the alloys with the All season tires back on Liath. Graycie spent the whole winter on the new(er) Michelin Primacy MXV4s so no switch over needed. BTW those MXV4s were pretty good in the ice and snow that we had here this winter, although we did tend to take the car with the dedicated winter tires (Liath) when conditions were the worst.

Took my snows off yesterday. Sure, it's possible it could snow, but it won't stick around. It's nice to have the sniny 17" Goals back on.You guys are brave. It's only the middle of March and in the Midwest it could snow anytime in the next few weeks. Bob
