Doesn't Costco have 20% off tires over Labor Day weekend? I recall people on RedFlagDeals aim for that weekend to order winter tires.

Ain’t no way I’m buying name brand winters lol. We do a lot of interior winter driving, and multiple ice racing weekends a year. Ice-x for my wife’s flex. I used to run the alpin pa4’s on the RS, last year swapped to “Sailun ice blazer” which were $114 each and absolutely awesome. Total beast in the snow and ice.
For the sti I run 17’s so wagering paying for new winters again, or just watching CL now. We also had something like general altrax or wtv on the focus SVT which were also awesome.
Point is, ANY winter tire regardless of name brand or b/c list is better than an all season in the snow.
Also unpopular opinion; why do people like continental dws so much, I don’t get it…
