winter tyre advise for 19inch wheels

w1k1nG · 10-22-2014, 01:24 AM

hello,

i have a 4gc with 19inch wheels and planning to buy winter tyres right now.

which winter tyres you suggest, please let me know ?
what about pirelli sottozero series 3 rft ?
also some people said that 19 wheels are good with winter tyres, so suggested me to go for 18' wheel and winter tyre set. what do you think about it ?

Hello,

I have used x-ice in Alaska before.
Served me very well.

I went to 17" square on Michelin PS2 from my 19".

There are few tires available at the staggered 19" sizes. I ultimately went with a square 18" setup 225/45/18.

A local guy ran 19s and he said it was crap. Better off getting 18s like others have said or even 17s.
