I'm getting close to this thing being drivable, and it's gonna need some snow tires for winter. I usually run Blizzaks, but I think I may want to try something else this winter.
I want some honest opinions on snow tires from you guys, and what size you're running. Will be using factory GT rims until I finish the conversion, then Camry 15" steels thereafter. |

I ran General Altimax Artics last winter and I absolutely love them.
Had to buy new ones for my 15" stock wheels since I originally bought too big of a size for my 16" wheels. You have to go with 195/55/15 instead of the stock 205/55/15 since they only make them in 195's. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...romCompare1=yes |
