Calling many places for some snow tires, getting a lot of different Brand names.

What would be the best Snow Tires to get for 245/45-20 front and 275/40-20.

Thanks

Bridgestone Blizzaks, Pirelli Scorpions, Continental DWS.

I love my pirelli scorpions got them from Tire Rack

Blizzak or Scorpion, cannot go wrong. I had ZERO issues last year in Snowpocalypse 2015. If it's at all possible, please use TireRack here on C5, Rudy is great and the service is top flight. I damaged a hub centric ring during change over last year and they sent me a new set of 4 for free in 1 day.

My pirelli scorpions really are amazing. Pricey but seriously worth it

Cenafan85 · 01-13-2016, 07:23 PM

I'm using Blizzaks DM-V1. Car handles really well in the snow

What everyone else has said above, I don't drive mine during the winter but Pirelli and Bridgestone's are a must for the car. I have firestone winters for my beater and they help a lot.

as soon as i get my car back from the body shop im going over to get scorpions put on. I've heard nothing but amazing things about them.

I have a friend that got a wheel and tire combo from Tire Rack with 18" wheels and the pirelli scorpions for $1200 shipped.

I have Michelin X-Ice tires and they have been flawless in the snow.

swagner · 01-13-2016, 08:29 PM

Plus if you're set on 20s most areas are pretty limited on options anyway

Yeah I could've got that but the 20s are oddly much more expensive than 18

I have different sized tires front to back. If I bought the same size all the way around would that be hard on the car?

Do yourself a favor and put 245/45/20s all the way around. Better to be skinnier in snow. And cheaper
