Hi,
Just got my 97 GST recently, and since it comes with summer tires and winter's coming, I'm going to be buying a new set of winter tires soon. I'm not really familiar with winter tires, so I'm just going by catalogs on tires.com and tirerack.com. Price is a concern here, as well as performance(wet/dry/snow).
So far I've narrowed down tot he following models(on stock 16" rims, 205/55/16), in no particular order:
Dunlop Winter Sport M2
Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice
Hankook W404
Hankook W300
Dunlop Graspic DS-2
Does anyone have thoughts about the above-mentioned tires or have recommendations on others?
Thanks!

The Dunlop Graspic DS-2 is the best of that group we have tested for snow traction. We have not tested the Hankook models so I have no idea how those would be.

How does the Graspic DS-2 compare to the Dunlop Winter Sport M2?
