Default Winter Tires?
I know we still have a bit, BUT what winter tires are you running?

I ran the Blizzak last year, they were ok. I have heard good things about the Michelin Ice.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

I am in hte same boat as you and need new ones - I've run M2s (205/55/16)and now LM-22s (225/45/17). Not sure yet what I will run.

Default 4th..perfect for Denver Winters..but not the "best" on ice..great dry winter tire
If I lived up in the Mountains fulltime I would go with a Nokian Hakkapeliitta 2.

But I love my M2's..on their 4th winter!
