Oh no, flat in one of an SUVs tires means that all four have to be replaced because it is four wheel drive. What a rip off! So what to get. Well, it is snowing in Seattle if you can believe it and ski season is coming, so here are the tirerack reviews show that there are some really high quality tires out there and you can’t go wrong really with just about of these four in studless ice and snow with most popular being the Pirelli and the Blizzak DM-Z3:
Pirelli Scorpion Ice & Snow score 100%
Michelin Latitude X-Ice 98%
Bridgestone Blizzak DM-Z3 97%
Bridgestone Blizzak W965 97%
Discount Tire also has a nice site and you can check their reviews. As a comparison, Discount Tire has the Pirelli’s for $180 and Tirerack is about $137 on special so going online is a little cheaper but you have to find an installer etc. They are available in north Seattle at 810 NE Northgate Way open 8-6MF so get there early or better yet make an appointment online. 235/65-17 is the rim size.
The Bridgestone DM-Z3 are also available on closeout at $107 at tirerack.com
