Default Looking for a good snor tire =)

Hey everyone, I've got a 96 GT and I'm stuck driving it this winter. I have cobra R's on it now, 245/65 R17 I think is the size.

From what people tell me, a thinner wheel and a good snow tire will cut you through the snow better and with a little weight in the back, driving a souped up Mustang through the snow, can be done.

I've driven my car through the mountains of Vermont in a snow storm and it was terrifying but possible.

What kind of setup should I do?

I'm looking for some Mustang coupe rims, those little 15's that they came with stock, if anyone has a set, pm me. I think those are what I'd use with some quality snow tires.

Thank you =)
Brenna

But sure, I guess I could just play SNORE tire off since they aren't as exciting as Mickey Thompsons =)

I am going with General Altimax Artic. I read alot of good things about them. I had Blizzaks on my old car and they did wonderful as well.

I would agree. Those are great tires to use as a less expensive alternative to the blizzaks.
