So when R U guys taking off the rims?
Hey guys, I usually take mine off the day after Thanksgiving for the winter, but its been pretty cold in the mornings here in Jerzey and i don't feel like wiping them down, LOL. When is everyone else taking theirs off?

Im taking mine off when the temp drops to 30's in NY. No point of putting the winter set on yet when the temp outside is still in the mid 50's.

79 degrees here in San Jose, CA. I took a walk for 30 minutes at lunch, looked like summer. I have no idea why I drove the Jeep today.

Same here too but it has to be measurable snow and not just a light dusting.
