• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

Joining the crew with my Blue GT2 in Morrisville

Question for you guys, are you going to be switching off your summer tires for the winter? This is my first car with summer tires and it seems like we are right on the line of when summers start to suck and winters start to work for most of winter.

I was thinking of just getting a set of all seasons for the colder months since I might make the drive up to Boston every now and then.

If I was still in Boston would be a much easier decision to grab winters haha
 
My plan is to drive my wife's car if temps approach freezing.

I drove on the stock tires through the tail end of winter earlier this year, without issue.

Since then I've switched different summer tires. I might go for a short drive Sunday morning to see how the new tires do in the high 20s/low 30s.

I'm in Matthews. Picked up my HiChromaRed gt2 awd about 2 months ago.

At this point in time, I'm not on Facebook. If there is a meetup, could y'all post here, would like to go.

I'm on Nitto summers. My car won't even make it out of our driveway. My wife went to work at 6:30 this morning so me and the kids are stranded here.

Can't even see where my yard stops and street starts.

I’m not thinking my Summer Continental rears, and Michelin fronts are going anywhere either.
 
Mines AWD too with summer tires though. Not going anywhere.

She's got FWD with A/S tires. And she made sure to send me a picture of the hard work she did while the rest of us were fast asleep. :laugh:
