Anyone in Illinois/Chicagoland switched to summer set yet?
I was wondering if it's time to do that now, daytime temp is in the 50s

In South Bend, IN about an 1.5 hours east of you. Putting the summers on this weekend and crossing my fingers that the roads are in better condition soon.

I did it yesterday - love the way it handles (not to mention that the car feels smoother and quieter). I took delivery of my car in December so I'd never been on the summer set before :D
Did it last weekend. The 162s feel alot different than my 17" winters. Not sure if its the staggered setup, weight, size, or RFTs but the car feels more planted but less responsive if that makes any sense.
