97 se snow tires
I think I have decided to get dedicated snow tires for my 97se.
Questions at hand are:
1. Size - 215/55/16 or 205/65/15 ? Will either fit with no issue on the 97 se with appropriate steel rims (tirerack ought to know). 215s will be cheaper and perhaps better in snow.
2. H rated vs Q.. Sure, H is on there now and Hs will handle and perhaps last longer...I tend to want to go this route.
3. Which tire do people have experience with?
Michelin Pilot Alpin - H rated
Michelin Arctic-alpin Q rated
Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50 Q Rated
Blizzak mz-01 Q rated
blizzak lm-22 H rated
Dunlop Winter Sport M2 H rated
Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Q rated
Appreciate thoughts..
