Enough with the snow tires, people

As the wife and I were straining hamstrings working in the yard yesterday we became aware of the regular sound of studded tires on the very warm asphalt of our street. Keep in mind that it has been in the 70's for a week and a half in Portland and although April can be a little finicky the chances of a late onslaught of snow and ice are, well, zero. So --how about if we pull our collective heads out of our SUV exhausts and lose the road destroying studded tires? What do you say? Also, is anyone else amused by the proliferation of middle-class, middle-aged folks "rockin' the 20"dubs"? Good Lord. Very street. I'm sure the non-hipsters on your suburban cul-de-sac are embarrased at their lack of cred. West Hills in the house.
