euroski

2008s had 2 options: 225/65-17 and 235/55-18. I live in the city and walk most places (work, dinner). I use the car primarily to drive to the mountains to ski so my number one priority was snow handling. I thought the narrower tires would do better. Not sure if aspect ratio is more important- just read a narrower tire will plow through snow better. Now I need a new set for when I do drive in the summer and would consider getting a bigger wheel. Any reason other than aesthetics?

Just posted on another thread for tires, not sure if that is bad etiquette, but I noticed this one was a little newer. Newbie to the site so have mercy please. I have a 2008 RX400h with stock Eagles for spring/summer/fall and Scorpion Ice's for winter. I need to replace the Eagles and was evaluating my tire rack suggestions (Yoko Avid ENV, Michelin Latitudes, Bridgestone Alenza's). I hadn't heard of General or Nitto but was impressed with the comments and reviews of people here. Unfortunately, I have the 225/65/17 size and the HTS and NT420s don't do 17" easily. If they are awesome, would consider buying new wheels too... Am leaning towards the Yoko's for now but could be swayed. Any suggestions welcome. I will be driving aggressively in the Bay Area in good conditions only with them.

Hey, first time posting. Did anyone get the Nitto's or Grabbers? Am looking for some feedback. I have Scorpion Ice and Snows for the winter and now need to replace the stock Eagles for the rest of the year. Am looking at a pure high performance tire with no need for wet or snow grip.
