cause & effect

thought I'd share:
yesterday swapped out the studded snow tires
for my 15" Konigs w/Toyo's
it has been nice spring weather for 3 weeks
yesterday was almost 70 degrees
today it's snowing........................................... .............
thank you murphy's law

WTF


BTW: for folks who live in my area..sorry for making it snow...very unthoughtful of me

lmao. I can totally understand. This year I sprang for snow tires for the first time in my life, and we had the mildest winter of my life....

adding salt to the wound..the lug key to the konigs stripped on the last wheel to go on...the new 1/2 inch breaker bar I purchased, proved too much for it....
but I learned something..simply bought a torx 12 point..fit right in...ha so this is how they steal wheels w/locks............good to know

anywho the rules of nature must apply..it's too warm for the snow to stick...so snow away you bitch (mother nature) !!!
