    SRT8 Charger All Season Tires?

    What tires are you guys using now in the winter? I'm looking for an all season tire for my daily driven SRT Charger that could still be used even in light snow.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanx

    I'll give you a little advice... Toyo Proxes 4's aren't all season tires more of a 3 season tire. I wouldn't go that route, other then that i don't have much info

    All seasons do not work on our cars... get winters if your rwd. The difference is amazing.

    I have a modified 300c and I've run in the winter with 2 types of all season tires... I was getting stuck in 1-2 inches of slow and would get stuck on any type of grade. The lack of any rear posi in our cars makes the situation worse.

    I put winter tires on and I can plow through 1'+ of snow with a careful foot.

    If its your year round vehicle that will be seeing snow do yourself a favor and get snows.

    I'm in the same boat, it's a choice between the Pirelli's and the Bridgestone Blizzak's. I heard good things about both, I'm leaning towards the Perilli's.

    i had pirelli winter tires, scorpions, JUNK!! firestone winterforce studded, the only way to go! on my rwd hemi magnum, the studs do the trick. i don't care what blizzack says no studs, no go! at least here in New England. the real test is my wife drives the car and she don't get stuck.

    Unless you live in an area where the roads NEVER get plowed/salted/sanded, you typically can't use studs- legally.

    I use Blizzak DMZ3's in the winter here in SE MI, and have had great performance out of them - even in 10" of snow. I've used the Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snows, and they aren't in the same league. All "performance ice and snow" tires, will sacrifice snow/ice traction in favor of "perfomance". If you live in an area that only sees light snow, you may be very happy with this type of tire. If you get snow, like we do, you'll want a more dedicated snow tire.
