Winter Tire Question

Post by huskerpt »

I need some feedback here. I have the goodyear tires in our 04 GT. We live in PA, 40 minutes from the Poconos. I have a truck for the heavy snow, but how good are the goodyears in 6 inches of snow. If they are not that great, what would everyone recommend? Thanks for the info.

I'd go with the Blizzaks and change out every 6 months. I have the 17" and the factory was aweful. See the http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=9432 thread.

you will need to keep in mind that the 03 17's were dunlops z-rated tires. the 04 17's are all season goodyears. if you have an awd vibe, you'll probably be fine. however, if you have fwd base or gt, i would probably suggest getting different winter radials.
