There is a nice distinctive tune being played up here though. Rush hour sounds like a pack of bees with all of the studded tires on the road.

| I use Dunlop Graspic Snow and Ice Tires. They are night and day in comparison to running an all season tire in the snow. Rob |

| Not worth it for our region, in my opinion. If we were in PA, NY, OH, somewhere that actually gets some decent snow, I probably would. I do have two sets of rims for two of my cars, and I switch back and forth between summer tires and all-season, but I do that for fun. A decent all-season tire should be OK here for year-round. Winter tires (snow tires) would give you an edge about 4 days/year around here.

| If there's that much snow on the ground that I need snow tires, then it's time to stay home.

| My buddy in Cleveland just emailed me this morning. Since yesterday mid-day, they've got 6" of snow. Some places to the east of them got 20". I think I'd use snow tires if I lived there.

| I was in Maine for 14 years and I never used winter tires. Used Cooper and Firestone light truck tires and went wherever I wanted in any snowfall and there was a bunch. |
