I know the stock Advan tires are terrible in the snow, so living in a snowy state I feel like I should get a set of winter tires. Not to mention my tires are almost going bald after almost 5000 miles of "spirited" driving.

I looked online and I think I'll get Michelin X-Ice Xi2s, but they're probably all the same. Those just look the best and seem to be a good price.

And for next summer, I'll get Yokohama Advan Neova AD08s, which are expensive but supposedly very sticky and very good.

 

I went all-out and got the same tires in 18" size. People think I'm crazy for looking forward to the snow...

 

me too! I can't wait for it to snow here

 

AWD + some nice snow tires should be a good time. =)

Oh poop, I am stuck with my stock tires for the winter cause I won't have the cash for a few months. I just bought those 89 dollar summer tires for next year.

Also, I need to save cash to buy myself a PS3 for Christmas....Merry Christmas to me.

 

well good luck with that, ps3 are pretty sweet, but drive safe, we would hate to hear that you crashed your car on the way back from Best Buy.lol

 

I don't have the Ralliart yet (haha - end of month... come quicker!) but I've got a set of Blizzak LM22's waiting for it already. Picked them up used from a Mazdaspeed 6 owner, because we have same OEM tire sizing.

I also have summer wheels waiting: http://cgi.ebay.ca/BBS-RS-GTs-with-D...item4a9b6466ca
Dunlop SP Sport Maxx on BBS wheels.

 

Argh double post.

 

Maybe we can ask for a group-buy for some of these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTDNL...ure=popt02us13

 

^ That'd be pretty sweet!

 

I hate subies, but props to that man for that idea.

 

Summer= 255 Nitto NT05's (word on evom is this one of the best track/street tires)

Winter=225 General Altimax Arctic

 

Can anyone recommend the best All season tires 235/40/18 (affordable price and really good snow/ice traction).... appreciate any help on this.

Continental ExtremeContact DWS, as referenced in the other thread here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/09...rt-s-plus.html

At $129/tire that's actually a very good deal for 235/40R18

It's still better to have dedicated summer/winter tire sets though.

 

Thanks man, appreciate the help... i was looking at those, and they seem to be really good for the price.
