Winter tires for '08 SS
Well, after driving in to work today, I realize I need some winter tires. I have a '08 SS without the Brembo brakes, and am not sure what to get. Any suggestions? Would I be better off buying some different, smaller wheels? Thanks!

Back when I lived in snow country I used Goodyear Eagle Ultra Grips, they are used by quite a few state police departments in the winter. I've always used what the cops run because they run in all the nasty stuff, like the average winter in Erie PA.

I think the best idea, if you want good winter traction, is to get a second set of wheels, 16s or 17s, and put a set of Bridgestone Blizzaks on them. While I've written on this site in other threads about Goodyear tires that I test, if I wanted some true winter tires, for frequent use in snow-covered and icy roads, the Blizzak is the way I'd go.
