Took me a while...
Took the winters out of storage. Washed and completely cleaned them (had put them away less than mint). Then took the winter oem wheels with Michelin PS All Seasons to my local Tire Rack installer "Moroso", Guilford, CT (great guys) in the morning. Got them balanced and got back home. Spent a long time putting two coats of American Wheel Wax on all four. Then got to do the swap of all four off the car. More time here due to wheel locks. Left the car outside until I figured the tire temps were pretty cool and set the cold pressures remembering to set the spare pressure too. Then took the summer tires into the garage for a bath. Will have to wax them another day. For me it was a big job but fun.

Takes me a while. I like to...
take the time to look over the brakes, suspension, and drive shaft boots. I set tire pressure and torque the bolts. I also clean and wax the summer wheels before I put them away.

i haven't even touched my summer wheels yet!
The dirt is just packed into the corners of the justices. It's going to take me a while to get them clean. I'm going to try and clean them this weekend if it warms up.
