The Smart Ones Are Buying Winter Tires Now

It's THAT time.

It may still be warm out, but winter inventory is hitting our shelves now. If what you want isn't in, it's on the way and will be here soon. Good snow tires in Porsche sizes were in very short supply in 2011. So far it looks to be better this year, but I would still encourage early ordering.


If you would like to pre-order your winter product and get your name on the list, just click this link to get started. There's no harm in ordering now if we don't have it in stock yet, we do not bill you until they ship.

Of course, feel free to call me if I can help. I'm always at your service. Thanks.

What is your personal favorite among the following options? (Vehicle: Audi S4 - Size: 255-35-19, All seasons)

1- Michelin Pilot Sport A/S
2- Bridgestone RE970
3- Continental extremecontact DWS

More emphasis on dry performance is desirable.

Thanks!

P.S: my local tire shop recommended the Toyo Proxes 4+ which you do not carry.

The smart ones live where there's no such thing as winter.

Overall the Michelin will give the best dry performance because they are stiffest. The Bridgestone is a very close second. The Bridgestone's do a bit better in the rain and are more comfortable over expansion joints. The DWS is best in snow, but that's it compared to the other two.

We know it's warm out, but now is the time to take advantage of good inventory and generous manufacturer rebates. If you are going to need snow tires sometime this fall, now's the time to buy!

Use this link to get started, or call me if I can help!

rhettjstone is an unknown quantity at this point
I got Bridgestone Blizzaks last year and like em quite a bit. Low noise, good road manners, good ride.
