geswek Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I've been in PA for a year and last winter was nothing -- snow was weak from what I was "prepared" for. Now that I got the SHO and AWD; I'm trying to figure out if I should get a set of winter tyres even though I'm not expecting Chicago type snow storms, or hell anything north where 10" + drop. I thought maybe all season but after looking around I don't see anything good. Grant it AS are not as great as ultra high performance summer tyres like Nitto Invo's. Thoughts? I thought about picking up another set of wheels (ones I actually want) and then throw winter rubber on my factory PP wheels (since they really ain't worth selling).

First-SHO Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 I have some brand new Blizzaks mounted to wheels for sale in the classified section. Buy the tires and get the wheels for free. Take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vernonator Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Get the Blizzaks...they are THE way to go. Nothing will stop you short of a 3' drift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadfoot Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Geswek, I thought that you didn't have the room to store a second set. If so, I would go A/S. The Michelin's did surprisingly well on my car this winter. You can't beat the price of First-SHOs Blizzaks and they are great tires. had a set on my Tbird... Night and day difference in traction! There is a demand for the 13 rims, sell them and get what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can buy brand new Blizz's for the same price as First-SHO and they'll fit my PP wheels. It's not worth selling my PP wheels if I go with dual wheels. I am getting new wheels period for the SHO. I would prefer A/S, but do not want to short sell myself on traction--especially with the 400awhp kit I plan to do next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkside Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 I'd like to upgrade the looks of the wheels as well. I plan on throwing some Blizzaks on the stockers. Finding any wheels you like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did; decided to follow bpd and go with the TSW Nurburgring wheels; I just can't decide over Matte Black or Bronze. This is what I am aiming for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
