Howdy Rob, good to hear you made it through the snow! I bought a set of 4 Gislaveds on 15" steel wheels this year, brand new tires and Volvo wheels. Got em on Ebay from some tire guy in CT for less than $300 shipped. I know several other people jumped on this deal as well. These tires are awesome! I've been driving my 242 through it all, and had no problems at all. For Sunday, I got the 140 pounds of sand in the trunk, too.

The past 4 or 5 winters I used Michelin Arctic Alpins, they were ok, I never got stuck, but they didn't grip like these Gislaveds! This winter I was actually going to buy a set of the Green Diamond tires until I found this deal on Ebay.

Did you do a lot of shoveling?? We're just getting started! (With winter, that is)

Greg
