I really need a smooth, damped supple ride first, a quiet one too, good snow traction next and acceptable (400- up) tread wear and good looks. unfortunately most companies consider a 60 series tire a performance tire and make it hard. Please let me know what you think or suggest. I have 205-60/R15s Fellow ceg'ers let me know what you suggest too!

I would also suggest you take a look at the Bridgestone Turanza H Revo. It offers better steering response and performance while still maintaining good ride quality and does have better wet traction and snow traction.

They are very good in rain and snow, have a noticable softer sidewall than the firehawks... i don't know about wear cus i go through a pair of tires (in all cars i've had, all tires) every year. 1995 V6 SE MTX 1998.5 CSVT 1963 Riley Elf/Saab 2.0L Turbo swap Go to the Photoshop tutorial page
