Yes it is late for looking at winter tires. Though as I am only getting the focus in the next week, I need to have some ideas. I was just curious on some recommendations for daily commuting doing about 3000km a month, and majority of it on highways (401 -> 8-> 85 to Waterloo). If pretty much anything is going to have the tread to last a few seasons then it probably would not matter much. A few tire places told me I'd need performance winter tires (ie blizzak, toyo g02 +, pirelli winter carve). Is there any truth to that?
Was looking at:Blizzak WS70, conti extremewintercontact, nordics, nexen, xice etc.
I have read most of the winter tire posts I found, but just the distance/treadware and the info about perf. winter tires I was unclear on. Thanks.
