winterforce or altimax arctic winter tires
 

i have run firestone winterforce tires for years on my 03 VW GLI Vr6. this year I am thinking about trying genral altimax arctic tires. any opinions on these? this will be the first year i put snow tires on my 96 volvo 850 turbo. thanks

I have ran two sets of Bridgestone Blizzak studless WS60's on my 2000 volvo S80 as well as my wife's 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid. I'll be getting them next week for a 2007 S80 I just purchased yesterday. I live in Western Montana and travel several times a month over two mountain passes to Spokane. I can't tell you how much I love these tires. They are truly amazing in very extreme conditions including glare ice and deep snow. Check out the tirerack.com website for professional reviews. Rated number two last year and number one this year. Hope this helps and good luck. Kevin
