Tire pressure is supposed to be measured cold. So when I installed my winters this season, I topped up to the PSI on the door jamb of 33 psi. Now that it's been pretty cold in the mornings, morning readings are closer to 31 psi. Would you top up again to account for the current temp? |
For optimal lap times to Walmart, yes. Otherwise, you're wasting your time unless you're going to deflate them 2psi when it warms up again. |
When I was a poor student, I pumped gas at the West Van shell station. You can imagine the kind of people that came in there. One douche bag came in maybe twice a week in his STi (this is in 99/2000) and had us check the tire pressure every god damn time. One time I got fed up and told him they were fine, 32 in three tires and 31 in the fourth. He then told me about how in Formula 1 a single psi could make the difference between winning and losing. I told him he wasn't driving a formula 1 car. lol.. I think I quit a week later. Personally, I'd put 2 more PSI in because I am just the same douche bag as that guy. KEKW I just know it, and I wouldn't make some poor kid making minimum wage do it. edit: fucking hell, it couldn't have even been an STi at that time. It must have been only a 2.5RS.. hahaha. |
Fuck that guy. Douche bag. |
Ordered a set of CC2s today. If anything bad happens to me on the way to whistler someone please avenge me and hold badhobz accountable. |
My lap times to T&T matters. Gotta escape the parking lot in record time, especially at the new Coquitlam location. That parking lot is horrible. |

They even ride great in the summer time. Given how thick and eye browly that tread is, I thought it would have a lot of road noise. Nope ! |
Argh got an email from Quattro saying they are having "availability issues" Motherfucker that's why you have an inventory system on your goddamn website isn't it? |
Yeah they are unavailable from Costco either. Otherwise I’d order a set for the 128 and the sc430 |
booooo badhobz what a liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 michelin cc2 not avaialble boooooooooooooooo!!!! |
My brother in-law who works service at a dealer says there's tons of stock on the cc2 this year, and pricing is actually better than a lot of poorer performing 3PMSF tires. Maybe the size you're looking for is hard to find. |
RFD effect probably |

I get that, but you'd think integrating inventory systems is possible. When some say out of stock, and some say in stock, it means they have the capability of knowing. |
Handy little video summing up the best in class for each type of winter tire. |
Just smash 34 PSI into your tires and call it a day. |

Costco used to do the fall and spring tire rebates .... any idea when we're expecting the next round? Gotta get some Crossclimate 2's on my mom's car |
^Costco cut back on promotions the last few fall/spring rebates. I'm waiting to get a set of CC2s in spring to replace my winter/summer sets - will probably get them from Blackcircles with one of their promotions. |
I was able to order some cross climate 2 from Costco yesterday. They had the size for the 128i https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/...0m1qg8dk21.jpg |
How did everyone do with their all weather's this Thursday on the ice rink? I was out with the crossclimate2's. A little slippage here and there, but my 1 wheel drive car stayed in the direction I wanted it to go the whole trip. |
Same. I went out with the Camry just to test how the cc2s were doing now they are 2+ years old and I had zero issues. An occasional abs jutter on ice but that’s to be expected. Take offs, hills and general braking were all fine. I went to go climb some back roads and alleys in east van / Burnaby capital hill area to test and didn’t get stuck. Traction came on for some of the steeper hills but nothing it couldn’t handle. |
