Just curious, as I would be fine with a cheaper tire that performs as well or better in future, I just don't know how you guys come to rate and choose them?
Ive only ever bought Michelin x-ice as they always are ranked at/near the top but Ive found them to be great. I check out consumer reports once and a while as they have good info if you're in the market for tires
