SNOW Is it the tires or the car ?

[bikeman]

I have used plenty of snows on cars over the years and many work,Including the well known blizzaks,But wear so fast in the winter on pavement its not worth spending the money on them.

Money is seldom an issue with snow tires. It's SAFETY. If the snows wear, you buy another set because most folks buying snow tires aren't doing it for financial reasons. They're doing it for SAFETY reasons.

I just purchased some tires and never ever had a tire that was so good,they are 4 season tires so no need to change up front,try a pair of Nokian WR All-Weather Plus.When you drive on these its like sticky glue in the ice and snow.

No tire is "like sticky glue" unless you put sticky glue on the tires. You seem to be ascribing your good driving habits to the tires. Snow tires don't make us safe. They give us an added margin of safety. How we drive in the crud is a heck of a lot more important. You obviously know how to drive.

That being said the Nokian WRs are the only All-season tires that has the snowflake and mountain symbol. What they are are winter tires that works in the summer.

So if people are lazy but don't mind the slight lost of performance in the other 3 seasons they can go with WRs WRG2s and have good traction in the winters without having to change tires.

Nokians were the aftermarket tire of choice we put on BMWs when I worked there. I did so many wheels/tires at that place it was ridiculous. Hell, I put an 18" package together for a 2006 550i sport that cost, wheels and tires, $5500.
