Blizzak Snow Tires NOW IN OUR STOCK SPORT SIZE!!!

silverpence · 07-08-2009, 02:09 AM

I'm actually looking to go with the complete separate set of wheels/tires option for my winter setup (my 370 has the stock 19s + sport).

Good to know that the stock 18s would be an option for the wheels but 245 tires is a tad too wide on the rear for my taste... If anybody comes up with a same size all around winter package, 18" and around 215-225, and that won't upset the VDC, I'd be interested...

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy an old POS corolla to use as a winter beater than buy dedicated winter wheels/tires? Not to mention the rust and probability of wipe-out with RWD.

I live in MN and if I drove this thing in the winter, it would be rusted through in 5 years.

Just my $0.02...

I don't think it would be cheaper and I'm just not one of those guys that subscribe to the winter beater philosophy. My 350Z saw all 4 seasons for 4 years with a dedicated wheel/tire setup for winter and that worked fine for me. That's why I'm planning on doing the same with the 370.
