Once the temps came up above 50 again, I switch back. My tire shop stored the DWS for me, so I can just drop the car off and have them swap tires next fall.

Did it for ten years with the NSX, only had a couple of slight slides downhill in snow, but I don't drive when the snow on the road is taller than my car's nose - wait for the snow plow or get a ride in my wife's Jeep.
Thats very nice that the tire shop stores them for you. Do you happen to notice reduced road noise with the DWS on??

Thanks,
Matt
