Purchased cleaning supplies from chemical guys. Installing Front dash cam and rear camera.
Spent $$$ on a set of DTC-60 pads (had to pay $80 CAD for import taxes! :crying) and a set of 75 mm Motorsport Hardware wheel studs. Oh well, last set of track pads and wheel studs for my car for life, unless I decide to go BBK which is not anytime in the near future
Changed the Roundel on my hood; the same automatic car wash that destroyed my passenger-side headlight trashed the Roundel, too. Also picked up oil, filter, crush washer at the stealership; this weekend I’ll change engine and supercharger oil, and switch to winter tires before heading up north for work Sunday night. Also started looking for a new/used PD HID adaptive headlight; apparently, not only the ballast and ALC module but the auto-leveling stepper motor were destroyed.

Bought Michelin tires for the ZHP : Pilot Sport All Season 4. The total was $732 OTD at Costco, they applied a $150 discount. Install date is set for Dec-02.
Coming from someone who has a dedicated set of summers and winters(PSS and Blizzaks), how big of a sacrifice is it to go all seasons? They sound great in theory with not having to worry about when that first snow hits, but I’m also in the Midwest where we could either get over a foot of snow all winter or have wet December’s and sub-zero February’s.

It depends, there are all seasons that are mostly summer with some winter capability, others that are mostly winter with some summer capability and some that are in between. The biggest advantage of all seasons IMO is their cold wet performance. Summers will still outperform all seasons even right down to freezing temperature as long as its dry. But once you combine cold + wet, they quickly loose traction. So if you live in a place where you don't get much snow but it can be cold and wet in the winter, all seasons make a lot of sense. Winter tires are really only best for snow (all seasons outperform them in the cold + wet when there is no snow). For your situation, it sounds like a winter-focused all season like those produced by Nokian might make sense. Personally I'd stick with summer + winter though.
I concur. All seasons would be good if you could avoid any heavy snow. The ones that do well in the snow (all weather) sacrifice a lot of performance in the summer.
