Default i'm putting new front pads on. too early to swap to winter wheels?

thinking about swapping them out because i'll have the front wheels off to change the brake pads. i usually change out the tires in november when there's a constant 45 degree temp out...although its too cold to change out the pads next month...i want to do it while its still warm out and not suffer through it.

If you can stand the extra noise until it snows...sure

Default Funny thing is I want to do the opposite.

My DPEs are coming back from DPE after being rehooped with new barrels for more aggressive offsets. I like my ABTs but I'm wondering if I can sneak the DPEs on and get to enjoy them for just a lil while before winter comes. I just don't think I could do the whole winter w/o seeing them on. But your winter's are LMs anyway right (like meem)?

Default yes, winters are LMs with Nokian WRs, so shouldn't be too bad with noise, etc...

and i think meem is running either RS4 19" replicas or last set was the spoked one that i can't recall...and it goes without saying that those were nice as well.
