In case you guys didn't understand, I test fitted a lug on the wheel, I did not install them. Well anouther let down the place that I had these tires mounted(mavis tire) put the wheels on so tight that my compressor can't get them off at 130psi and I can't get them of because the whole motor moves when I use a breaker bar. So I am going yo have to take the car somewhere and have them change the tires and make sure they put them to 110psi or less...

 

Damn...someone overtighten much? I would go back there and tell them to fix it.

 

Totally ^^^! Bummer to hear man!

 

Wait
Your motor was moving when you were trying to take your wheel off...?

 

I chose the same tires you have for this winter, decided to try something different than Blizzak's. Supposed to get some nasty snow/ice tomorrow, cant wait to try them. Good luck with the lugs.

 

I'm going out tomorrow after work to see if I can get them done. With a little luck maybe the place can squeeze me in...

I havn't heard anyhting bad about the michelins, my sister has 2 on here car and they have held up for the past 3 winters and still have 50% tread left.

 

Well the only thing I got done their was getting the two keys off on the front wheels, which were the only things holding me back. BUT, now the weather is holding me back, freezing rain for the next two days, If it was just raining I'd go out their and do it but not in freezing rain.... Hopefully their will be a break in the weather tomorrow so I can get them on because snow is in the forecast for next week......

 

Ok so I got out there today and just beat the freezing rain/ snow right now....




I also have 300+ lbs of weight in the trunk

I also saw where my tires were hitting. The right wheel was rubing aginst the metal on the inside of the wheel well when the wheel is turned to the left and the left wheel rubs the inner plastic fender well when I turn right. I guess I need to get an alignment when I put the summer's back on in march....

 

Where in the h3ll did you get studded tires? I didnt know we could have those in OH. H3ll I never saw them on a car or truck before. Anyway next time your driving past Cleveland let me know ahead of time and we can meet at Lake Erie. Srt I was going to ask you how are your new tires but I guess you havent driven with them yet.

 

Srtgtr the car looks nice with those wheels
