It is not just snow / ice. Winter tires work well in cold weather. Summer only tires do not. Wait for nights that are near freezing or above.

Just curious if anyone in PA has decided to change over to their summer/wheel tires yet? I live in Northeast PA, still running my steelies with my General Altimax snow tires. Looks like nicer days are in the future. I thought about switching to my summer wheels and tires today, but something told me to hold back.![]()

I'll be leaving mine on at least for this week. There's a few days the forecast is still calling for the high temp to only be a bit above 40.

I wish I would've waited until the road sweepers were out now. These stock summer tires throw every single little piece of gravel on the road everwhere! I don't know if it's cuz they're basically new or just a softer tire?
It sounds like underneath my car is being shot by a firing squad of shotguns.![]()
