Paul,
There is a website (sorry, lost the link for it) that compares different tires. People log in and rate their tires on a whole bunch of different things...winter traction, wet traction, durability, etc. If you could find it, that would give you a lot of good info. If'n I remember right, there were thousands or hundreds of thousands of ratings which weeds out the anecdotal ones. I used that to buy my BF Goodrich All Terrain TAs and I loved them. Absolutely loved them. I have Goodyear Wrangler ATSs now and I like them, not quite as much but close. Seem to wear a bit faster.


What you do today is important, you are trading a day in the rest of your life for it.
