They don't make those anymore... Its been replaced with the 3D.Another vote for the M3`s for performance subies and Blizacks for the rest.
umm, not really. Grabbers are marginal to OK at best for winter duty, and are NOT rated for severe snow use. yes they have a blocky tread pattern, but the compound is a bit hard for cold weather, and there are def not enough sipes in the tread.General Grabbers.
They still make the M3`s. You can get them from TireRack.They don't make those anymore... Its been replaced with the 3D.
I think you just need to find something that in your price range. ANYTHING, and I repeat ANYTHING will be better then not having them at all. I think overall they all basically perform the same.
Same opinion here. Matt and I got winterforces last year. They have horrible side walls, lots-0-roll/flex. Wicked wonderful tread, excellent going and stopping traction. Not so good at turning. You have to wait for weight shift and sidewall roll, then you can turn.i run firestone winterforces. cheap enough on tirerack.com but they handle like dog turd. depending on what you need, and how you'll drive, you may want either really agressive snows, or performance snows. not going out in the middle of a blizzard? wait till the roads are mostly clear? performance snows. like me and are the poor guy who has to plow the roads? get agressive ones
