Tires Goodyear or GENERAL TIRE
If you just want a used racing tire, (maybe Goodyear, maybe not), check out your local short track. The one's I've been to usually have piles of them laying around.
Goodyear was selling the "Support Our Troops" tires from Charlotte at the june michigan race last year for $20.
R Wagon, studded 17" Good Year Ultra Grip Ice Arctic. I'll say no more..
I have General Grabber AT2 on my XC70 ...I also recommend going with 16s, more sidewall means less likely to bend a wheel.
For a budget snow tire I have been using these now for 2 years and love them:
I put on a set of Eagle Sport all-seasons about 10K miles ago and I like them. They grip well and road noise has been non-existent. But they do maintain their grip on wet roads.
I had Eagle F1s on my RSX after having a set of Nitto summer tires. I have to say, I loved them. Grippy, and handled minor inclimate weather way better than the Nittos.
I love my General Grabbers and AT2's. They are a little rough on the street but an awesome tire off-road. The AT2's get stuck in the mud very easily though. I've had the AT2's on my daily for 4 years now with little wear and I drive an average of 14,000 miles a year.
My Goodyears did that after 40k miles/5 years.
Got $150 prorate back towards my new set of Hankooks, which i love
Asymmetric 2's, not the A/S version. I've driven the A/S version in rain and was underwhelmed with those too. At least in heavy rain, I wouldn't want them--that's based on only one experience, but they were at least 8/32's and were not impressive.
