I put four Toyo Observe (Garit HT) on mine (Blizzaks were sold out for
miles around when I got the idea (after talking a 270 degree turn when I
need only a simple left hand turn on the "summer" tires).

I did a lot of research, and these seem to come out near the top. With
already one snow storm and one ice/snow storm, they worked pretty good
with almost equal performance of dry road to the Turanza's (original
equipment for 2005's). But it is only the start of winter in the Northeast!

Tomorrow 40 degrees....top down!!!!
