received and installed snows from TireRack

I ordered the Pirelli SnowControl 190 175/65/15" from Alex at TireRack..they came in just 2 days and I just installed them today ( it is snowing here in eastern Mass today ) . They arrived nicely balanced, fit easily and drive very smoothly and pretty quietly...bring on the snow!!!

Are you up on the North Shore? It looks like you're getting hit harder today/tmrw. I'm out west and we're forecasted to get 8" or so by tmrw.

I have Nokian Hakk's and haven't really tested 'em yet. Of course, I washed my car on Fri so it had to snow.
