[V8] snow tire time...

[toml99 at todomundo.com]

I got a set of Michelin X-ice tires 2 years ago(?) and love them.   
Drove them in all conditions all over the Tetons/Rocky Mtn West and  
they were awesome.  They feel/sound so much like a performance tire,  
that this july I went in to have a slow leak fixed and the guy tried  
to sell me a new set of tires.  When I pointed out that the tires  
weren't that old and that there's no way I need new tires, he said  
"well you know, those there are snow tires".....Since I hadn't driven  
the car in a year, I had forgotten to swap them for my Michelin  
Pilot's(which I also love)...good thing I didn't go on a long summer  
road trip.....Tom
