Thumbs up Tires

Hi Guys; I've got a 2003 Grand Am GT1 and it has the original Goodyear Eagle tirws ( 225/50R16 ) on it. As I live Manitoba Canada our winters are rough. These Eagles have to be the worst tires I've ever had to ride on in snow and ice. No traction. Looking at putting on the Nokian WRs or I'm told that Goodyear makes a good all season tire called the triple tread. They are on sale now. Can anyone give me a report on these tires. Ricker

Re: Tires

Never heard ot Nokian WRs , Good Year triple treads are kickass IMO !

They were around $160(US dollars) each a few months ago here.

Re: Tires

That sounds like a sweet deal.
I'm not sure on the conversion price but buy 3 get one free is always nice.

Plus the tires are 80,000 mile warranty, and free rotate and balance for the life of the tire.

Actually lately the way the US Dollar has been dropping it's pretty much 1:1 with the CDN Dollar(which means less of a deal on Canadian beer runs over the border ).
