This will be the first winter that i will have my Z and I am wondering what the people here do during the winter. I dont have the option of another car so I need to use my Z. I was looking at getting 18" Blizzaks, but my question is do I need to get all four tires replaced or can I only do the rear two, as they are the drive wheels. What have the users on this board done? Who has used Blizzaks? Are they a good tire? Any others that will perform in the snow? I just want to be ready for this winter and have these on as soon as possible.

 

Hey there, you are gonna want to get all 4 replaced the front are jsut as important as the rear when it comes to traction.

 

The best bet is to replace all 4. stock tires are too sensitive to temp, they get stone hard in cold weather. I drove on snow to a ski village last winter w/stock tires. I was skiding all over @ 15 mph. I'm in CA. No suggestion for winter tires, just stay away from snowing mountains.
