Hello all snow runners...please give my your feed back for types of inexpensive snow tires that have worked for you. I will use the snows for the winter season only and put my banana peels back on. It works for me because inspection month is in December...haha. I've looked on tireracks sight and no one with a Volvo has ever commented. I have a 93 850glt manual

I never buy 'cheap' snow tires. I may live to regret it.

ive never really had snow tires on my volvo, made it through some really scary stuff with mxv4 pluses, and some pretty nasty stuff on my current bf goodrich compta.

I myself have thought about getting snows since i have a 40 min highway drive to work now.... and i live in iowa. I have heard good things about bridgestone blizzaks,...
