Welcome to Everyday Driver where cars are more than just transportation.

Their freedom, a common ground, a way to grow, and can even make life better.

We're here to help everyone find a car they love and discover all the ways they connect us.

I'm Paul.

I'm Todd, and this is the car debate.

We're having a mixed bag of tires going on right now in the world.

Hi, how are you?

Welcome back to the podcast and happy Tuesday to you but we have

press cars coming in without winter tires personal cars that exist with

winter tires so it snows a lot and look this is total first world problems I realize first world snow problems

But I realize I need to drive the thing that just showed up so we can talk about it

But it's snowy outside so I want to drive my own

car because it's got good tires on it. Right. Which is a weird combination.

It depends on the press vehicle. It does for sure.

Yeah. But what I love about our local shop is that they call the swap, just a NASCAR swap.

That's fine. And everybody knows what that means. When you need your summer tires mounted on your summer wheels, change to the winter tires mounted on your summer wheels change to the winter tires

mounted on your winter wheels. You just take it to them like need a NASCAR swap and

they're like got it thanks, bye. So they know exactly what to do. So we have the Z4 and the Mercedes the cheap sports cars are both on winter tires right now and I have to be honest look kind of cool on their big winter tires.

They do although my staggered fitment means the all four normal tires and wheels all the way

around means the rear track looks really narrow yeah so it looks like one of

those trucks that drive on the train tracks now it's a little strange but

whatever I had my I had my car parked in a parking lot in the last couple days and I watched a guy in a huge expedition parked next to it looking at the Z4 like it was a spaceship because it was slightly snowing and it's parked
