BUY THESE TIRES FOR YOUR CAR!!!

Well The tires that were on the Talon were Balding Kumho Ecstas. And since it was predicted that we were gettign soem nasty weather I wanted to get new tires for her.

Well I decided that Since I drive alot I was gonna put on the Goodyear tripletreads. There an 80,000 Mile tire made for the rain/snow/ice/ and even dry handling. Not to sound like a commercial or anything but I would reccomend them to Anyone and everyone as the tire to run on your car.

thats what they look like. No lie i couldn't get them to spin much even with snow on the ground...and turning feels like your on dry pavement.

I should be going out tommorrow in the elemnts to try and get video of how well these little buggers Hook!

all season is all compromise. sorry but there's no way around it.
they might be a great all season but they're not going to hang with a true snow tire or a true summer tire in their respective seasons.
but again, if they're a great all season then cool... good for those looking for all seasons with 80k treadlife! woah.

I got the Bfg traction t/a's, I was out before the plows and didnt have a problem either. Its a good all season tire that hooks on dry too.
