                Just getting back from vacation here. Finding that I had to drive my FWD 80 HP civic on summer tires to work this morning really makes me wish I would have missed my flight home.  😫

                    What one of you fuckers put your winter wheels on? You are the one who brought the snow.

                        Mine have been on for a couple weeks. Felt a bit weird putting them on because it was 60+ degrees that weekend, but it turned out to be the right move.

                          i may or may not have put snow tires on as well

                                I probably should put mine on.  The Indy500's were a bit sketch in the tiny bit of snow yesterday.

                                  last year I was late on tires for the first snow as well. this was me trying to stop on a very gently inclined street:

                                      Need to vent: 

                                      Ordered bushings from Revshift on 10/24. I didn't get any update and called on 10/30 just asking if they knew when they would be going out. They said they shipped on that tuesday (10/29). I said great can you send tracking info. Nothing. I called the following day and asked for tracking info. Nothing. Called yesterday and asked them again for tracking info. Nothing. Called again today and asked for tracking info - they finally send me tracking and it was a brand new USPS tracking number with tracking info saying a label has just been created. And then they're closed for the rest of week while they're at SEMA.

                                      I know in the bigger picture it's not a big deal at all and it's not like I'm driving the car anytime soon, but I gave them $200 and no one can tell me where the bushings are.

                                        Ordered bushings from Revshift on 10/24. I didn't get any update and called on 10/30 just asking if they knew when they would be going out. They said they shipped on that tuesday (10/29). I said great can you send tracking info. Nothing. I called the following day and asked for tracking info. Nothing. Called yesterday and asked them again for tracking info. Nothing. Called again today and asked for tracking info - they finally send me tracking and it was a brand new USPS tracking number with tracking info saying a label has just been created. And then they're closed for the rest of week while they're at SEMA.

                                        I know in the bigger picture it's not a big deal at all and it's not like I'm driving the car anytime soon, but I gave them $200 and no one can tell me where the bushings are. 

                                        As a business owner myself I always try to get stuff out on time. This is the type of stuff you lose customers over. You wouldn't have been mad if they would have just told you they were running behind. Instead the gave you the runaround.

                                          Correct. I would have been completely fine if they would have been upfront with me about where my order is. 

                                          I should have just ordered factory bushings from FCP and been done with it. I placed an order from FCP yesterday for the AC condensor and drier and it was shipped in about 2 hours and will be here tomorrow. 

                                          I'm also waiting on my front to rear brake lines from Chasebays and of course that was marked shipped on the 1st but according to USPS it hasn't been picked up yet. WTF is going on.
