So I have a day off finally.. Calling for a chance of snow tomorrow. My car, the Mazda3 is the only one without snow tires on it yet even though I had them put on rims a month ago... :)
So out I go to the driveway to do the swap. I get the front driver side wheel on and go to get the next one. The snows are "Winterforce" directional tires and of course, there is a HUGE arrow that points the way the tire is supposed to go on. So, what do I see... to my dismay????? I see one... yup.. just one of the three tires with the arrow going the WRONG WAY!!! I start cursing to myself wondering how huge, successful tire shop in the city of Toronto could screw up on such a simple thing.. :X and the fact that they are an hour away made me more angry. So, I came inside and grabbed a coffee and started thinking... :S So I went back outside, took another look at the three sitting there and realized I was the moron... :eyeroll:

They are all on now and I am prepared for whatever mother nature brings us this year.. :)

Old carpenter's rule : Measure twice, cut once. Same logic. ;)

'Measure twice, cuss thrice' has always been my watchword...

So, what was the problem? You were looking at it backwards?

I had a transient moment and forgot there was a left side and a right side of the car..... :)
