Tire and Power Questions

Winter is coming and wondering what is the best tire for the maxima se?

1. Are the Bizzak's the best tire or go with or should I use a studded tire?

2. Also has anyone get a shimmy after changing the stock tires?

3. Did anyone get new rims for the tires or use the stock ones?

Power Question
1. Can you change the 12v adapter to be live when the car shuts off easily?

1. There is no "best" tire. Everything is a trade off. Your selection of tire will determine traction on ice, traction on snow, speed rating and handling feel, noise, tread life, and of course cost. There are only a handful of winter tires in our size. Check out Tirerack or 1010tires to see what is available. There's no question that the Blizzak tires are a good choice for most people.

2. Hmm thats a good question. Dunno. Changing to winter rims&tyres got rid of mine.

3. Yup. Bought some el'cheapo steel 17's.

Power Q
1. Probably not.
