|
|
After my accident last winter, leading to the death of my baby ('98 GTP) I will undoubtedly be buying snow tires this winter.
Can anyone recommend a good set, and/or point me in the right direction for purchasing them either online (guess DTD) or locally in WNY?
Thanks guys,

You definitely want to talk to our club member Tommy.
He can set you up with a good deal.
He works at a place in Rochester. I'm sure someone can give you the name and number (i had both on a pen, but I lost the pen in my car somewhere). |

I have a set of Dunlop wintersport M2s.....theyb are AWESOME!!!! They are recommended by BMW and Mercedes as there winter tire of choice....and if you ask me if it's recommended for RWD it will be more than adequate for a FWD vehicle!
They aren't that great in the rain...however slush is no problem...or wasn't when I had them last year. I kinda destroyed 2 of them so i have to buy 2 more for this winter. |

I lost the pen with the name of the place he works at.
Try sending an email to the email list. He used to be on there. If not, maybe someone will remember the name or number. It's right around the corner from my office, in the Farmer's Market area. |

Auto Concepts.
It is in the Farmers market. Drive into the market, and it is the last building complex on the left at the very end. Next to the Auto Glass place. |

If only Subaru would design seats that I'm comfortable in...
