Should I buy the Altimax Arctics? I have been trying to find someone on Genvibe that has them to get a review and haven't heard anything. I need to know soon before the snow hits hard.

I need to know soon before the snow hits hard.I did some research before grabbing the Generals. I also spoke to a few shops around Montreal and they all agreed that the Generals were very good tires.Check: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...rctic

Well I bought the Altimax Arctics but haven't had the chance to use them on snow or ice. They are much quieter then I thought they would be. Almost as quiet as my all-seasons.
Well I finally took the car out to find some snow. I drove up to Schweitzer mountain in northern Idaho. I'm pretty impressed so far with the Altimax Arctics. I tried to get the back end of my Vibe to fishtail around the 15 MPH switchbacks and it wouldn't do it. Good tires.

Faced our first snow storm and had no issues at all

I am digging the blackshoe look! svelte. Course in Montreal they will be laced in road salt on a routine basis (those are surely painted steelies!) Based on less experience than you have had, I like the Arctics too. Bang for buck....I second the Team Neptune nomination!
Gamma Vibe ==> 2007 Base 5-speed, Neptune
Delta Vibe ==> 2009 Base 2.4L 5-speed, Red Hot Metallic
but still more bikes than Vibes....

Now just wanted to tell you that no the steelies have never been painted. I just keep them real clean in the winter time lol!!
