Question Snow tires? - not all terrain

I know some people have replaced their tires with Michelin Cross Terrain tires.

What I'm interested in is did anyone keep their factory tires and buy snow tires for the winter? If so, what kind?

Thumbs up

I think the best "snow" tire you can buy is the Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT. The company is from Finland and is a division of the cell phone company. Their tires are highly rated and used on many winning rally race cars. I have them on my Pilot , Jeep TJ, Volkswagon VR6 and they perform like no other on ice and snow. Live in western Canada and believe me it snows up here. Check them out at www.nokiantires.com.

Default I keep the factory Goodyear fro summer.

I put on the Michelin Alpine 4X4 winter tires. I found it stop better than OEM Goodyear.
