The vast majority of steelies have oversized hub bores to fit a bunch of cars so don't expect to find one with the correct bore, just get hub centric rings.

I wouldn't worry too much about hubcentric rings. Never used any and never had any vibration issues as long as the wheels were properly installed.

Pretty fair price for steelies. Not mine.

If you're switching from alloys to steel, make sure your lug nuts/wheel bolts have the correct seat for the steel wheels (round, conical, flat)

So ended up picking up those steelies above, now the GF's friend is selling her set of good year Nordics (Canadian tire specials?) to us for $80 they were only used for 4 months and basically have 75% tread
Remaining
At that price might as well just go with those? Are are they shitty enough to justify spending more on somthing new ?

New snow tires are going to run in the $400-600 range.
Best is to get a tire tread depth gauge and measure how much tread is left.
Also, make sure the tires are the right size for the car. The Elantra and a lot of newer cars run a 195/65/15 tire now adays while older cars use to run a smaller diamater 195/55/15 tire.

All Honda dealerships advertise lowest price guarantee on tires, and lots of manufacturer mail in rebates going on right now so good deals to be had.
Regardless of your Make/Model, you can try pricing out a set here (this is openroad hondas site): Honda | |

I had Pirelli sottozero's installed on the R8 a few days ago and I must say I'm impressed with the tires. They handled pretty good in 1c weather, lets how they perform when the temps drop below 0.

195/65/15 vs 195/55/15 tire are very minimal.. you get more 10% more rubber (better for pot holes), but otherwise everything (include mount radius) is the same. Quote:

The snow compound doesn't go 100% of the tires, it is just the first 10-15%.. then they become just chunky all seasons.. if it is 25% gone, I will get new tires. Quote:

Costco.ca has a really good deal (at least for the size I was checking) on the Blizzak WS80's if anyone is looking. $129 (before mount and balance) Ended up being $670 out the door (mount, balance, tax, tire levy, etc) and you can probably get Costco.ca to price match the $70 rebate they'll have next month.

Yes it is taller, but the diameter for rotor clearance, width and mounting points are still the same. Unless the car is super slammed (probably not on an DD Elantra) it will fit just fine. Quote:

It's far more.

In fact, the Michellin truck tires I bought at Costco in Portland did not have the rebate at time of purchase, but in Canada a few weeks later, they did. Guess what? They honoured it.
