- '02 ES
Alright guys (and girls), I'm curious as to what you all think. In a nut shell, I think my '02 ES completely sucks in the snow. I'm not sure if it's the weight distribution or just the tire/wheel combo, but after trying out three sets of tires, and talking to another owner of an LX (w/stock 15's), I'm convinced that the car itself is just not that good in snow.
That said, the point to this is to find out what tires you're running on your 15's or 16's, and what your reviews are of them.
Here's mine:
Stock 16's on OEM tires (forgot brand/model): Tires sucked when I replaced them at 30K. Terrible sidewall rigidity, rain traction was also poor. Dry was adequate at best.
Stock 16's on General Exclaim UHP: Tires were great at first, but quickly became noisy after just over 5K on them. I'm at about 18-20K on them now, and they're litterally falling apart. I just noticed that the sidewall actually ripped in multiple places, which was caused by nothing more then tire failure, not road hazard.
Now I'm in the market for a new set of tires, and am looking at the Fuzion ZRi or the Yokohama S-Drive. Kumho Ecsta is also an option, but I'm leaning toward the other two.
Any comments, suggestions, reviews, etc.?
