Just curious as to when everyone plans to put their summers back on? I guess its still too early since the average temperature is still between 0-10 degrees C....

 

This coming weekend! Considered doing it today, but I got lazy and decided to play rock band 2 all afternoon with some friends. :P

 

haha not till mid april lol last year when i brought mine back in march we had a freak snow storm and then in april we had another and it was not fun driving with the summers on lol

 

Just did it earlier today. Took me an hour to swap and clean the mount area.

 

I can't see your location on your details under your name so it's tough to give you a valid answer. I assume you are CDN since you are posting in this section.

Bascially, it's location specific. If you live in the province of Quebec - you must leave your winter tires on until March 15 (yesterday) but I wouldn't rush out and change them since the temp isn't there yet. If you live on the west coast then you know they have broken all the cold temperature records last week and it could be sometime before normal temperatures come back so my advice would be to leave the winters on. If you live in southern Ontario - where temperatures are nice then changing them in the near future are fine. I personally live in Ottawa and changing them before April 1st isn't a good a idea.

 

Hey Heff, I see you're in Stoon as well. I'm thinking of going from a 35 to a 37 this winter. I have the 35 oem 18s for my winter rim, but according to various posts they don't fit on a 37S...whereas 350Z 18" 5 spokes do (so I'll likely pick a set of those up later).

Anyway....what's your winter setup - rim style, size, brand of tire? Happy?

 

Did mine today....could not wait any longer

 

i'll probably do mine next week.
any one have pics on where to put the jack ?? (not the one that comes with the car).

SEARCH, bruh...

 

thanks !
i still dont quite get it. well not that i dont get it, my worst nightmare is that it slips and the jack stays 'erected' and punches a hole through the floor of the car... dammn !
.
is there a reason why the jack can sit on the same ridge / lip as the stock jack ?

 

Made an appointment to have the summers put back on March 28th. Looking forward to it as I only had the car for a couple of weeks before the winter tires went on.

 

winer setup is a set of pricey blizaks that cost like $1800 becuase of the tire specs, as for winter driving its great i dont mind it wat so ever, what color is ur 35? I see quite a few but i know theres a red one with rims and a carbon fibre spoiler at the uni I usually see, is it urs?

 

That's why you get jack stands in case the jack fails!

Don't try to put a regular hydraulic jack on the ridge, I tried that and it bent the piece out of shape!!! If you take out the OEM jack in your spare tire you'll see that jack has a special slot just for the ridge to slip in.

 

Sorry, didn't take any pictures. I bought a 3 ton wide and low profile jack from Costco, it was on sale for appr. $60 last year. It works great on the factory jack location. The center hard rubber boot help to minimize slip and scratches, and it is quick and very sturdy.

 

I keep my summers on all year long... Gotta love the Atlanta winters. Lolz.
