Thanks everyone for the input i havent been able to respond because of school. Turns out i got a good eal on some lightly used goodyear nordics installed on rims so i pounced on those and returned the winguard 231\s. So far they are ok but noisy and maybe its me but i feel like turning at...

First time buying winter tires, and i couldnt refuse the deal i got for my car ($420 for 4 215/60/15 Studdable tires). My only concern is do they need to be studded to fully utilize their efficiency or will be fine. My commute consists of using the provincial hwy 16 and its clear most of the...

Ive gotten mine at the local shell gast sation in single bottles for 7.99/litre i belive. Its expensive but id rather get this since no synthetics seem to go on a good sale here anymore and id rather pay that then 38.99 at WM for the usual stuff. Plus after hearing about the Toyo 0W20 i caved in...

So ive come to reason with my BITOG syndrome, and jumped on another deal for 0w20 Toyota sythetic which i got for $5.65/L from the dealer, and 5w30 PU at the shell station for $7.99/L. The 0w20 looks like the Eneos bottle but says blended in USA and is SM rated. Hope you guys like the pics

Heres what i have right now for bottles, ill upload the jugs another time

Ill play but it might take a while to gather all the oil from the house in one spot

Just acquired a case of this stuff from my not so well stocked PC dealer. Dont know how its a blend at 0W30 but it was definitely cheaper then getting GC 0W30 (11.99L) vs (6.18/L) Definetly going in the malibu for this winters oci and if it holds up good might be my new winter oil...
