I was thinking of brining mine out on the 9th of April (if the weather is good then) that is the last day of classes, so I thought it would be a good time.

On the 06 SS, I have never removed the stock tires and rims. I don't drive it in the snow so there was no need to remove them.

I take mine out of storage when the april showers clean all the **** off the roads.. They use a mix of salt ,sand and what appears to be mud on the roads around here . It takes a few big rain storms to clean them up.

Hopefully by the end of March. It really depends on the forecast when I see days of temps above freezing and no snow then there going on! Im really hating the look of steelies, I may be looking for alloys for winter next year.
