I HOPE you're putting them on for a lease turn-in and nothing else.

go around the neighborhood and look for tire swings. Look for a G in the driveway, good chance the swing may be what you are looking for.

I'd be very scared to use these tires in the winter. I live in a "wet" area and these tires slip and slide and have 0 wet traction. I can only imagine them in snow / slush. Tirerack's rating is all red. I'd say put chains on or something to save yourself.

Turanza + Precipitation = Death.

i know doogie. argh and I don't have the cash right now to ditch the tires :-( I do have some 235/50/17's picked out- either the Pilot Sport A/S or the Avon M550 A/S (just bc I like allseason tires). So till then I have no problem burning up my horenzas.

btw here is the link to tirerack - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....1=yes&place=12

snow traction 3.6 ..yikes!

the car isnt going to see snow too much, maybe once or twice im going to store it in the garage for the winter i have another car to use, i just need a tire because i had a flat and its not repairable and i need something just to get me by through the winter (even though in the garage) and in the springs im going to get 20s so it doesnt matter i just want the same tire all the way around
