Regarding my weekly activities, I swapped my A/Ts back on. I kept the snow tires on this late in the year because we actually had several solid snows throughout the month of April. And I dread putting my A/Ts on every year because they are such garbage tires -- loud, crashy, and poor grip. But I think this will be the last year I have to put up with them, because they are 9 years old and starting to look a little bit worn (only 30k miles). One of the front wheels must have thrown a weight because there is significant vibration in the steering on the highway, so I'll have to make a trip down to the tire shop. I'll have to start researching what tires get the best ratings for driving over the curbs at the starbucks drive through.

I'm happy with the wife's Dunlop winter sport and the Michelin I have on my car for curb hits; they both have time protection. The tire comes out past the rim.
I regularly drive on top of a curb for drive in forward parallel parking and the tires put up with the torture.
