Well, if I put them on in October.....maybe they'll be worn down enough by April of 2011.....(hopefully end of snow season here)....that they won't be so squishy or squirmy if I decide to keep them on in summer. Should probably just buy a second set of wheels in case of another blowout like I had last year at 80+ MPH.....just glad I got stopped before the wheel was damaged. Eventually took one off the 08 to get the 07 home.
