I'm looking at buying my first set of show tires I've come down to the altimax arctic or winterforce I'm looking for opinions on what you guys have used and ratings any input would be greatly appreciated!

 

Snow*

 

Honestly, you shouldn't really need snow tires. I live in a secondary snow belt and work in a primary snow belt. Thanks to the lake effect snow I'm either driving through 6-8 inches of snow or solid ice... or both, constantly, and I had no issues. That's on standard Goodyear RSAs.

On my Silverado I would run Goodyear Ultra Grips and about 200 lbs worth of sandbags in the bed.

 

Yea I live in mid Michigan so I get everything my roads are mainly plowed I wanted that extra comfort knowing I have those tires but i dont know if spending 500 is worth it or not

 

Well my DD is RWD so I need to do winter tires - was going to go with Blizzaks or X-Ices but the place where I bought my rims didn't have those available in the size I needed so I got Yokahamas - I hope they are good.

 

I have a set of toyo AT's on my Silverado...I travel to the North Country in the dead of winter and drive thru some of the deepest snow in Michigan...without any issues...Never been stuck yet! Ive pulled snowmobiles, trailers, etc... I like them there a great tire and thick lugs...The nicest part is when its dry out..theres no humming noises either!

On my car I run Goodyears...They do the job very well..No matter what the weather throws at me!..Here in Michigan!

 

I have always enjoyed Blizzaks as well.

Snow tires are fantastic to have. It's so much better to have a dedicated snow tire and a dedicated summer tire. You don't realize how bad the all seasons are, until you get the dedicated ones.

 

blizzaks and winterforce tires are great ive had them both and love them equally

 

I have heard good things about the blizzaks too. I looked at a set the other day and they look like they would work really good.

 

I take my 20's off for the winter and run 16's with Winterforce on them. Their great!
