Winter Tires

Well we finally got our first snowfall here on the Canadian Prairies, and as usual its very slick out there. I was wondering if anyone else has mounted any winter tires on their vehicles as of yet? I went to Tirerack.com and they suggested the Michelin Artic Alpine 235-70QR16. <br><br>Just wondering if anyone else has any experiences yet or any plans to mount different tires.

For price, and performance, consumer reports list the Dayton Timberline A/T for $55, the Kelly Safari AWR for $56 or the best for snow, is the cooper discoverer A/T at $60. You need to shop around to find these tires, but it shouldn't be too difficult.<br><br>The dayton and kelly are good in snow, the cooper is excellent, but only fair in dry braking.

Are you looking specifically for "Winter" tires? Or, are you looking for a good "Mud and Snow" tire? If it's the latter, I just bought a set of Goodyear Wrangler AT/D tires at Sam's Club for about $96 each. We actually had some snowy weather here in Texas last week and they performed very well. Now of course, I am not authority on lots of snow since it snows once in a blue moon here, but I think they are worth a look.
