I am looking for a set of snows for my car for this winter. I had winterforces on my civic and enjoyed them, but it doesnt look like they make them for the BMW. I would like to stay below 110 per tire. Any thoughts?

the blizzaks (sp.?)

3

What size are you looking for?

4

You know you’re from Buffalo when…

5

yeah, they are on the list.

205/55-16

response to blizzaks:

a mechanic at the shop i get my car serviced at n shit said that the blizzaks were the best winter tire he has ever owned and hes gotta be atleast 55 im sure he knows his shit. probably going to get them for my car too for winter

Hak’s > Blizzaks. The Blizzaks wear tread too easily. Ask McGinnis…

If you go SLIGHTLY taller in the sidewall, you can get the Winterforce’s in 205/60/16 which will be $60, other snows are going to be $100+ int eh size you want. My personal opinion.

I ran winterforces for 2 years, year round and just now are they getting bald.

Im getting them again.

10

i am trying to take mine OFF right now because its killing my gas mileage, dont mean to hijack but anyone have good suggestions for summer tires? economical of course!!

195/65R15

Most economical suggestion in the thread, opinion gets replaced with fact when a hand can be run across the back parimeter of the stock fitment tire without knuckles contacting suspension components to account for the ~10mm growth in tire radius.

12

Truth. I had blizzaks. They were amazing but they were damn near bald by winters end.

13

haaka > blizaks. blizaks are for faggots, save your cash and pick up some wintermasters or some shit

ive always just rolled around on all seasons with good tread. le cackord is unstopable

14

oh so true lol

im not gonna lie, i have been thinking about winter tires too as a matter of fact.

15

blizzaks are nice.

haaghkipoeletttios are much nicer. traction wise, and “treadlife”. This was same car, two different winters though.

16

I had blizzaks, and they were alright. I liked the ones i just had best though, they were icebear 3000’s or something. I got them from the flea market for $260 for 4 in 205/60/16.

Those are them…

17

Hancook Winterforces FTW, I hope they have that sale again this year. i bought 4 shipped last year for my CRV for 120 shipped i think.

18

Dunlop Graspics aren’t too bad either. I would put them one notch below the Haks…

19

I absolutely love my Hakkas.

20

Love hakkas too But I don’t like the newer RSI’s I have now as much as I did my old Q’s.
