Snow Tire help??
#16
+1 for the Blizzaks! Coupled up with our AWD system they're pretty much unstoppable. My amaizing wife bought me a set mounted on some Kosei rims for Christmas a few years ago. I put them on in November and take them off in March and I put some solid miles on them and they've held up great.

I have the Hankook I Pikes. I work at a tire whare house containing all kinds of different tires I pikes are a great/ cheap winter tire. Were the good year eagle ultra grips are also great but a much more spendy tire. I get my tires at cost, which is really nice and can have a tire pulled out each paycheck. So i dont have to break the bank. .. I'd say i Pikes would be the best they can even be studded. Hope this helps

I am a big fan of the the General Altimax Arctics, though they may be a little soft for the Evo depending on your climate. I've had these tires on countless VWs, an Evo, a RWD BMW, a Focus, you name it; they are a great bang for your buck winter tire. Last winter around where I live was just cold but not a lot of snow, so I would have preferred more of a performance winter tire vs. the Generals which are more suited to heavier snow.
By all means, if you live in a 4 season area, go out and get yourself some winter tires. All-seasons are worthless; they are simply a compromise in all conditions. I prefer to have summer tires and winter tires and use the ones that suit the conditions.

I think I'm going to get Bridgestone Potenza RE970AS Pole Position, Nice sold all season tire that can get me through the winter. Then run my V12 Evo tires down during the summer, and when those finally wear out I have a good all season tire to switch to. :| not ideal but should work in my situation.

If you have a place to store the second set, get a set of winter tires! You will absolutely not regret it. Even the cheapest winter tire is going to be better than the best all-season; no question about it.
