Default Anyone have/used Green Diamond snow tires ?

I was thinking of getting a set of their snows to try. Anyone have any experience with them? I was looking at the Icelander.
Also for a TT is 205/55/16 the correct snow tire size I'll need to get new 16" rims also.

Thanks<ul><li><a href="http://www.greendiamonddirect.com/?page=shop/browse&amp;category_id=1c914424d2569bea3439fbcca91 23a27&amp;ps_session=16c086ff087e3279e8618118c7aa7 79e">Green Diamond Snows</a></li></ul>

Default If it weren't for their banner, I would never had heard of them.

They might be good snows but I don't recall seeing anyone hear talk about them. At least consider the "known" contestants: Dunlop Wintersports, Bridgestone Blizzaks &amp; Michelin Arctic Alpins. Depends on your Winter driving environment (lots of ice as opposed to snow - little ice or snow but just cold dry surfaces...).

Default I'm using 205/55/16s for my snow tires. It's a nice size for winter tires.

No experience with Green Diamonds though.

Default When I've bought snow tires, I've gone "old school"

I found a wheel that would fit and bought appropriately sized studded snows and swapped them on when the snow flew and took them back off when the roads were back to pavement...
