Pls halp.
I read good things about the General Altimax. It's supposed to actually be cheap but good. In the past, I've had Hankook Icept Evo 2 and those were great - though I'm sure tire tech has moved on. Has anyone tried Michellin Xi3?

I do a ton of driving - and all my drives are long (read: 100+km round trips are the norm). And I drive storm or not at those distances. I would like to have some great rubber. Anyone have experience here? In the past, I've just gotten winters either used, or had some cheapy ones on an awd car.

WS80 on the Volt. That car feels like a tank in the snow with the low COG.

Michelin Xi3 is the shit. So was Xi1. Xi2 was a fucking nightmare -- they also only made them for 1-2 years.

Just so happens I have a 225/60/R17 set for sale too

I'm also running Michelin X-Ice Xi3 on my own ride.

I have the Altimax Arctic on my Coupe and they are incredible. Car is a tank in the winter for a lowered RWD car. I absolutely love them and sell them any chance I get. The XI3 is a great tire as well. For me, value for the money is hard to beat with the General.

Agree on the Altimax Arctics. They are an old Gislaved design, they do VERY well in the snow, even when half worn out. Got a solid 80,000kms out of a set, which is not normal for winter tires. German made. Only problem is their sidewalls are a bit sloppy and can create a driving on Jello feeling on a car that is otherwise stiff. They are being discontinued this year though I think.

I just bought the new version Arctic 12s, which were last years Gislaved Nord Frost 100. Hoping that they are bit stiffer since they are an XL load rated tire.

Continental is the parent company for both Gislaved and General. Good to go with any of these brands.

Michelin X-ICE3 is a good city of Toronto winter tire, probably rides the best and is one of the quietest, but it is not Scandinavian good as there is a Michelin X North in other markets to compete with the stuff like Nokian.

Ive used various Hankooks over the years without issue. They are a more aggressive/knobby design and maybe a tad loud on bare roads, but they are beasts in any snow/ice/slush.

I have an SUV sized set for sale too.

I have the Conti Extreme WinterContact (now discontinued) on the BMW. It's easily the best winter tire I've run in the dry and wet that we spend most of the time in. It's quiet, grips well, and doesn't feel as soft and mushy as others I've used in the past (Pirelli, Blizzak, Yoko IceGuard).

It lacks nothing in snow and on ice either.

It's been replaced by the WinterContact SI.

18" rim - nothing out there that fits over CTR caliper as of now. i think there's one or two 19's that do....not sure what brand. one may be an enkei though. also i think ctr is 5x120.

TR shows over 300 18" rims that fit the car and they have done a good job in the past of measuring and spec'ing rims to fit a certain car, beyond just diameter/width/offset. Lots of guys on CivicX using 18s as well.

There was barely any space between the rim and caliper on Screamin's CTR when he brought it out.

I launched a few days ago with DTC off and left two big black strips on the road, lol. I thought for sure I'd have a 1 wheel peeler. I've put the Wavetrac on hold, might do Stage 4 instead (Turbos, IC, fuel pump, etc). Decisions decisions.

Yo eddie_82 thank you for the Conti Winter Si suggestion.
I got them on the car. These tires are dope.
Dry performance is *not* like a winter tire. Firm sidewalls, steering is still direct and accurate. Drives totally normal. Really good.

If snow traction ends up being the same...wow. just wow. Sick tires. driving a car on winters no longer feels like punishment.

How old is too old for winter tires???

My sis now days her tires are 6-7 yrs old, and asked whether to chuck em or not... I haven't looked, but would imagine they're cracked.... (I usually think 5 yrs is the max.)

Worst tires ever with no winter grip, had them on the ML63 and Panamera, garbage unless you don't plan on driving on snow/slush.

Getting XI2 and DMV2
