I need tires soon and I went out today to get a few quotes. I need a performance all season tire for use in some snow, as I will be away at college for most of the winter. I have E1 rims. So which would be best for me? (open to suggestions also)

Firestone Firehawk GTA-02 215/50/R16
Total Price (tax, balance, everything) 471.80

BFG Comp T/A 215/50-16
Total Price 473.09

Thanks ahead of time.




In both cases you are considering ALL SEASON high performance tires. These tires definitely don't match with the OEM BFG KDW g-force or the Firehawk SZ50 EP which are ULTRA high performance SUMMER tires.

Anyway, the BFG Comp T/A are superior to the Firehawk GTA. Personally, I won't put either of them on my SVT!
