Winter Tire Selection

Herb · 10-13-07, 09:54 AM

Dunlop M3
Pilot PA2
Goodyear GW3

Any recommendation? Which has the stiffest sidewall?

Need it mainly for driving fast on cold roads and some occasional (5% of the time) snow driving when a blizzard blows up and I have to get home.

have you looked into good year assurance?

what car are these goin on?

These are going on Integra.

Performance capability (H/V rating) is the most important. Most of my time will be spent driving on clear roads. Maybe a couple trips up into the mountains on the weekend where the snow aspect will be very important.

I have summers on right now and it is beginning to be not too happy here on the East Coast.

i'd recommend u look into the assurance, if u haven't already. We have them on my parents, Van and civic. they are good for mud and snow, they really cut thru it all. last long too, my mom is going on 50k on the same set and bearly at 5-6 32nds. they are pretty stiff. i can feel it. although those other tires u suggested look pretty good too

Out of those 3 I would recommomend the Dunlop M3's. Long lasting, good traction, ok in the rain and has a $50 rebate through the middle of November. Here is a link for some info on that.

I wonder how the brand new g-Force Super Sport does in light snow?

It's the first Z rated tire out for my car that I know of.
