Re: Great deal on snow tires!

When I got to work, I immediately called to make an appointment to get the new Blizzaks mounted and put on the car. It isn't the snow that's the big problem. It is ice and snow that is packed down to make an ice layer. No all-season tire will get traction on ice like Blizzaks will. Only studded tires are as good on ice but that is a personal preference. I don't like them but some people swear by them.
For most practical purposes the blizzak ws-60 are even better then studded tires, The studs do work better in some situations though.
