BLIZZAKS put to the TEST!

Just got back from ASPEN! Made the 230 mile trip there on SNOW & ICE covered roads in 3 1/2 hours without any problems. I encountered an STI on the way there and beeped as I went by him lol.. to my surprise a TAXI minivan (must have been local) must have thought that was some sort of challenge to him and tried to pass me up. Well there was NO WAY I was going to stand for that! I don't know if this guy had chains on his tires or what, but he gave it a pretty good shot! I couldn't believe it, we were going 75-80 mph on snow and ice. But no worries guys, he was soon a small spec of light in the rear view.

I highly recommend these tires to anyone who is considering winter tires.

LM22 245/40R17 $183.00 each.

They are about a 1/2" wider, and 1/4" shorter than the stock replacement LM's. But they are about $70 less ($280 total). And my speedo reads the same (or not noticeable). I think because the tread height is higher.
