New winter tires
Got the winter threads put on last week. 18" Blizzaks with rims from tirerack. The ride is amazing. Not as much road noise as I thought there would be. With less rubber on the road its easier to steer the car. Bumps and potholes are also less dramatic. Couple days later we got hit with a dusting of snow, not enough to test out the tire capabilities, but enough for me to see that these tires have a ton of grip. I don't say this often, but I can't wait for a good snowfall!

Hrmmm.. the tire looks a little under-inflated in that pic, which begs the question.. What pressure should I be going for? Max on the tire is 51psi. I think [very cold] they are around 35psi now. Should I use the same cold pressure from the door sill?

Yeah, I'm going to spend some quality time with my bike pump and tire pressure gauge this morning before work.

I noticed you have the awe installed as well. As far as I know Pfaff Tuning is the only local dealer around town that sells the kits.
How does it sound. Any drone

Other than that, I'm happy with it.
