hey guys, trying to help one of my cousins find winters for his gt mustang, anyone have any clues on where to look online (locally) ??

1010tires, Tiretrends.

Ask RS sponsors for quotes, they're cheaper than either of the above two!

running snow tires


ANY snow tires > best summer tires or all season

heres my winter setup, glad it fit, way more roomy than i thought lol

while we're on this topic... what do you all inflate your winter tires to? do you go by the recommended settings found on your door OR do you inflate winter tires a few (2-3) more psi above the door settings, as some tire shops recommend?

My door settings are front/33 rear/32 so my winters are set at front/35 rear/34 'cold readings'


btw.. cdn tire has a digital guage on sale "nascar digital tire guage" for $10. regularly priced at $25. good deal.

nice accord TRD604!

summer time i normally do 35psi all around

now the winter comes, even tho different tires i would appreciate my tires to be a bit less inflate or at least to stock recommandation. Therefore i will stick with 32psi all around. More psi, less grip,but less wear on your tires.
