Tires (need I say more)

i-bought-a-v6 · December 13th, 2010, 11:02 PM

What are the best winter tires for our cars for less than $100 each?

What are the best summer tires for less than $120 each?

Specifically for our cars and not for racing or anything faster than stock

What do you want out of a summer tire?

Best could really be anything. Do you need good treadlife, a smooth ride, hard launches or what..?

And what size? That makes a huge difference...I had some BFGs from Sam's club on my stockers and they were great for like $80 each. Idk how any of them are in the snow on our cars though, I've never winter driven mine. That's what the trucks for with the 2 feet of snow I have outside now.

I have bridgestone blizzaks on my rear tires right now. They do pretty good in the snow. But they're like $130 a piece.
My fronts are too great though. No turning for me in the winter lol

Winter tires need to be safe

summer tires need to have good traction normal sized but it would be okay if they fill out the stock rims a little more

I am not racing but I do drive "spiritedly"

Like I said the BFGs I had were really nice, you just have to go to the tire shops around you, see the prices, and determine how much treadwear you want to sacrifice for performance in the summer. I always buy locally so I have road hazard.

It would help if we knew the size of the tire. But Tirerack.com has reviews on tires thats how I pick out tires. When it comes to tires everyone has a different opinion so it will be hard. Ive had BFG G force AND I LOVED THEM I also have nexens n3000 and some people dont like them but i think there pretty good.
