Default Our Denver snow normally reaches northern IL in 2-3 days.

we are supposed to get ~7 in of snow tonight. Now I just wish I had put on my snows already, still runing the 18" all seasons.

Default From the far west, We should be getting snow today, looks clear out the window.

I'm still amazed at how smooth my ar rides with the snows, But on yesterdays trip, I stopped off the hill to was the sand and salt off and the wheel vibrations were back. At a gas stop I checked the in side of the wheels, and mud had settled on one side of the inner part of the rim. A quick brush with the snow sweep brush and all was smooth again.
What type of snow tires on the S. I'm still looking for something to go on the BCR?

Default No Snows on the S

It rides on Metzler Sportec M-1's. We get enough dry days I can ride a lot over the winter. But days like today it is safely tucked away in the garage.

Default Re: No Snows on the S, Same here,

did get a ride in to Reno for a recall on the Ox sens wire re route. All most went down on some salt dust on the on ramp here in Truckee. Nothing showing on the road but could spool the rear like I was on dirt. Ride safe, maybe when your out this way we can get in the karting thing.
