I was wondering everyones thoughts on these tires. I need to get rid of these crap stock tires. I live in WI and do get a good amount of snow. Currently 107 a tire and they seem to get really good reviews. Any input would be great!!

I run them and I'm more than pleased with the all weather capabilities. Wet weather they are GREAT, In the snow there more than adequate. I have yet to get stuck this winter, although not comparable to fully dedicated winter tire there better than the previous all seasons I've had. There definitly not a preformance orientated tire, there sidewall is a little mushy when trying to take a high speed corners. IMO there a great tread design and wear patteren has been great as well. I would buy again in a heart beat. BigJim runs them as well, I'm sure he'll chime in and give his thoughts.
