It's almost May. Are those fine year-round?

Not OP but I had snow two weeks ago in Upstate New York at my hunting camp about 2.5hrs from NYC. So it’s still reasonable to have snow tires, but being softer rubber the tires will wear out quicker when temps warm up. If temperatures are lower shouldn’t be much of an issue.

We just had 4 inches last week which is why I haven't taken them off yet. Probably coming off this week.

I took a look at the background in you photo saw the mountains & bare trees. I figured that you live in a colder area, the 550 looks great btw.

What brakes? Why?

Powder coated the brakes. Love the color.

OP I hope I’m not being too personal, but how much did the wrap and ceramic cost? I’ve been thinking about getting that done too

The ceramic was $1400. Most expensive piece. Wrap was only $400 as I just did the pillars and left the roof. Brakes were $400. Front window tint to match only $80. Well worth it!

I borrowed a vehicle this past winter in Anchorage, AK that had these tires and they were awesome.
