Default Winter Mode - Who's ready?

It's a little early but Winter Mode is right around the corner. Time for that delicious pumpkin pie latte as I stand posing by my car on a busy Robson street Friday afternoon. Or... maybe not but it's time for Winter soon and I was in a desperate search for 17 BBS STi rims and a nice set of winter tires. I couldn't find what I was exactly looking for. So here's the kicker. My car had it's handbrake over tightened a few days ago and I ended up getting towed to Specialty Subaru. Well Specialty Subaru had a brand new, never mounted, 17" STi BBS rim set mounted on Hankook winter tires. So I bit the bullet. I bought them and got them mounted on the spot.

So I started texting the Slurrey Crew and I got a text message back from Amar. I am an idiot, yes I am I did not buy STi BBS rims, no no, instead without me even having a clue what I bought, I got 2007 STi limited edition Enkei rims. Now I feel like crap using them for Winter Mode. So... Who's READY for Winter Mode? Because I am and I can't wait.









My car went in the body shop this morning for some repairs to my rear bumper. My aftermarket exhaust I had (T1R) melted a large hole on each side So... this is my rental car: I'm sorry SUBARU.
