whats up fellas. 1998 acura intergra se
im up in NY and i see snow this weekend in the forcast. right now i have my girl running on high performance summer tires. can anyone recommend a cheap good snow tire? i will be alternating them back and forth between seasons. any help appreciated.

im leaning towards the Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50

anyone have any negative comments about this tire?

Wish I could help ya, but I live in GA and well we just don't have that much snow. It might snow like 3 times a year here lol.
I am going to put this in the Wheels/Tires section, you will probably get better answers there. ;)

I have Toyo Spectrums on my civic and i absolutley love them, awsome snow handling and good rain and dry handling

Well your title says all season-snow tire-kinda of an oxymoron but the closest would be the Nokian NRW or WR (great all-seasons with a significant predisposition toward winter handling-with no appreciable loss in dry weather performance). As for other all-seasons the 2nd tier would be Pirelli PZero Nero M+S's and the Goodyear Tripletread-(an awesome all-season).
As for more inexpensive TRUE snow tires I would look at the Dunlop Graspic DS2, Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice, Hankook W440 or W300, or possibly the Toyo Observe Garit HT.
The WS-50 is a pretty good tire but the biggest knock-and it's a big one-is the fact that it doesn't communicate much to the driver and has the tendency to suddenly break away at the cornering limit. Otherwise it's an ok all-around winter shoe.

Definitely Nokian tires. I have the Nokian Hakkapellitta 2s on my Civics and never got stuck or had problems in the deep stuff. Even use them for snowcross :)

If not my wife's Protege5 had Dunlop SP5000s on her car and they were worked surprisingly well in the one dumping we had at the beginning of this year.
