Just something I do........................

I run dedicated snow tires on steel wheels they go on at the last possible moment before an appreciable snow storm and they come off when I feel confident that is it for the winter. Then they sit in the garage till next season. As do my 3 season tires when my snows are on.

Well I like to know which wheel came off where so I mark the inside of my wheels with phosphorescent pink nail polish I got at the dollar store.

Starting at 1 o'clock going clockwise I dot the wheels.

Right front - 1 small dot
Right rear - 2 small dots
Left rear - 3 small dots
Left front - blank

I do this to both sets so I know how to rotate them back and forth season to season. I have a clip board in the garage that tells me things, such as how many hours are on the snow blower, lawn mower oils etc. as well as are the Yaris tires going back to front or front to back.

I used to do this with chalk until I hosed off all the dust on the tires with the garden hose one spring.
