Default Winter Rubbers

Hey everyone!

Today was everyone's lucky day in good ol' Medicine Hat, Alberta...it SNOWED!!! AHHHH!!!

LoL All kidding aside, I've heard that the G-Force T/A's are known to be alittle "squirrely" on snow and ice, and was wondering what everyone else was putting on for tires this winter (except for you lucky folks living nearest the equator).

I've been eyeing up a set of Michelin Pilot Alpin PA2's. From what I have found, they're the best winter tires one could buy without having to change rims. Though they are wicked awesome tires, they are not by any means cheap ($312 canadian or $250 american per tire)!

Thanks a bundle,
Kevin of the great white North

P.S. Has anyone had a block heater installed as of yet? If so, how much did the dealer hose ya for it?

Blizzaks are what I'll be running on my T-bird (hence my winter car... allowing the SRT to remain safe in the garage during nasty Michigan winters)... I have heard nothing but high marks about the Blizzaks and look forward to testing them out this winter!!!

Hmmm...Bridgestone Blizzaks eh?
How do they stack up against the Pirelli Snowsport 240 and Michelin Pilot Alpin PA2?
