Aighttt... I know there have been a lot of posts and threads about the SS's winter tires and rims but after my trip up to Mount Snow today I relized how much my tires suck. I was going to just take my rims off and put my continentals (Stock rims and tires) back on then i relized how bad they were in the rain. so my question is this..

what is the best snow tire for the base cobalt to put on the steely rim? The size is 195/60/15 i believe. moneys not an option here since the tires im sure will be a heck of a lot cheaper then repairing my car. and how about studderd tires? pros/ cons?

ps. i also almost slid into guard rails going about 25mph. and that no lie. So after that trip id much rather spend money on tires and maybe even some winter rims if the price is right. :cool:



Thanks a lot. and your input is greatl appreciated since i will be purchasing them within the next week.

Ryan,

Long time no talk heh. I have these on my cavailer, these are abosutley bitchen in the snow.

One time I got so pumped in the winter time when these tires got me through a foot of snow I came home and kicked the kitchen table right at my mom! They are about $120 a crack after road hazard and balancing/install.

You will not be disappointed. The ride also is NOT affected by these.

These stop good and get great traction! You will not die with these ;)

i was also looking at purchasing these tires. they honestly look like the best option. i just didn't have enough money for it. *sigh* hopefully i won't crash my car in the snow or whatever the hell.
