Hi all, so I get a great discount on Pirelli's. My experience with Pirelli has been so so at best but the deal I get makes it worth considering. I am looking for advice on their winter tires. I have 3 options, yes one option is studded (I am considering both studded and not studded). I live in a suburb that gets lots of snow, ice and freezing rain. Pretty much we get tons of stuff thrown at us here. Im not too worried about wet or dry road traction, since mediocre in those is fine. Its lots of snow and lots of ice and extreme cold at times. What would you choose?
Option A: Pirelli Winter Ice Zero (not studded) 203$ after mail in rebate size: 185-65-15
Option B: Pirelli Winter Ice Zero (studded) 246$ after mail in rebate size: 185-65-15
Option C: Pirelli Snowcontrol 3 (not studded) 228.36 after mail in rebate size 195-65-15
Anyone have either of these and can share their opinions on the tires including treadlife or provide opinion on which one you would choose. Thanks in advance! I am not considering any other brands since I get such a great deal on these. Next cheapest set I can get are about double that or more.. Please take note the Pirelli snowcontrol is only available in 195 (stock). I am considering going with 185.. but I prefer to choose the best tire from the lineup first!
Thanks!
