Got half of my winter wheels on before the snow hit yesterday....

At least I got the rears done, might slide like crazy on the front summer tires but at least I will have traction in the rear :X

Gotta get the fronts done here tomorrow.

Yea I had a nice interesting ride home last night at 1:30AM on the fully snow covered roads. As long as I stayed off the throttle and barely touched it, I went so-so in my Falken's...

I may just wait until the move is over next weekend. 2 car oversized garage > barely 1 car garage for swapping out tires. Although the apartment garage is at least somewhat warm, LOL.

Yeah I just got my 18" snow tires via UPS. Mich X-ice and there going on the stock wheels. I had to break down and buy them cause with the Exedy in there the car doesn't like the snow.

So I go out to move jeep...and hatch is open...fkr froze shut...just gonna have to keep kicking it more...danbike is mobile again

I took it for a brisk ride up and down the street the last time it was snowing was doing burnouts and stunter style burnout circles on the ice in my driveway.

Im on the lookout for a Mini tach I can mount on the handle bars so I can watch the rpms when I yank the governor off. I also wanna straight pipe it after seeing the crazy amount of difference it makes when we tried it at daves.

A few weeks ago i had made a comment on the Big 3 and what is/was/will happen. I am sickened beyond belief that, if passed, i will have to pay not only to fix the Big 3's prehistoric management practices, but now im going to fund district judge raises?

I dont know how much all of you have been following this (obviously i have) but this all just leaves me shaking my head in disgrace.

Thanks :-)

We have me, you, and my mom to help. We can see how this goes. The important stuff is going in Friday, furniture late Friday/early Saturday, and appliances on Saturday.
