I haven't posted here lately, but I ordered an 2016 Accord Ex 6MT, and it should be here next week or so. I'm gonna miss my old A4 that has been my daily for 14 years!!! But, it's time to move on. The question is whether I have winter tires installed right away, or live with the all seasons for the remaining few months of winter.
Nice! I've got a 2014, love it. The all-season tires suck donkey nuts in snow; if you're going to have it for a while, I'd suggest steelies with snow tires.
Yeah, I dislike the OEM wheels, so those are gonna get the snow tires anyway, with something better looking for summer. This winter has been mild so far here though... I just jinxed it, sorry.

ugly wheels, but passable for winter IMHO.

I think it's more of a question for the remainder of this year since we've had such a mild winter.

haha yeah, it'll be all your fault once the snow starts flyin'!

I don't have snow tires for mine; it's a lease and i don't really give a shit, but if it were mine for realz i wouldn't chance it and would put snow tires on right away. Just my $0.02. I'm sure you'll love it either way!

pfft, that's the least of the problems with the Snalibu. It's also 4cyl 6AT. It's a boring commuter car.

When I hear V6 MT, I think coupe!

Yeah, no Accord V6 sedans if that's what you are getting at Pete. Mine will be a measly K24W, but with a 6MT. It doesn't matter to me. Better fuel economy and reliability with the Honda I-4 than the V6 anyway.

hmm that may change my recommendation then. mine is a V6 coupe and the all-season tires can't cope with the torque very well.
