Default Tipps miny rant

IF IT snows and there is snow in your wheels THEY ARE NOT OFF BALANCE, also Prometers are NOT good snow tires, DONT COME AND BUY YOUR WINTER TIRES DURING THE FRICKING SNOWSTORM THAT MAKES ROAD CONDITIONs TREACHEROUS

srry people come into work everyday and do these things and its driving us all mad

i hate to say it but people are stupid, "yes im gonna take my front wheel drive car through a foot of snow to argue with the salesmen so i dont actually get the snow tires that i really need, but tires that are probly worse then the ones i have on, becasue i dont have enought money to get snow tires, even though i came out during the middle of a snowstorm"

Hehe people just don't understand the driving in snow it will likely get packed into your wheels, especially if you slide, and cause them to be wobbly. Bridgestone Blizzaks FTMFW?!?!?

I wish I still had my snow tires... the guy crushed them with my car when he was SUPPOSED to give my steelies and tires BACK. I can't afford snow tires now and I dont want to put snow tires on my 15s with crappy tires or my 14s with nice tires... i need another set of wheels!

Tip for you guys, Hankook winter iPike are great snow tires and they're cheap on www.discounttiredirect.com. I ran through 2sets so farand have gotten through some impressively bad snow (and mud in fieldsafter the snow melted). I have a pair of Yokohama Ice Gaurdssitting the garage right now, I'm giving them a try this winter, I'm hoping for some bad weather soon.
