I can never get enough! - I love snow, skiing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing and any other winter activity

So is it the warm temps that kills the life of snow tires or is it dry roads? Or both? Temps are set to drop around here and I can only imagine snow is right around the corner. I'd prefer to just get my tires on when I have time, rather than have just a day to get them on when they call for snow. I just want to get the most life out of them and since I drive about 500 miles a week, I figure I'm best waiting if dry roads will affect them.

Yeah, I was in DC for a small storm and the whole place shut down. I was amazed at how such a small amount could shut a whole city down.

Dude the Fates are going to fray your string. You are in deep dodo and the whole ENW is going down with you. I am sorry.

Arrg! You do realize, snow is a 4 letter word! Surely this forum has standards of conduct for posting. Perhaps the moderators will forgive this most heinous offense
