Now that it's spring I have to start planning for fall. I live in northern Michigan ans get a fair amount of snow for 3 months. There's a lot of you (mostly the guys on the east coast line) who have winter tires and seem to do just fine.
My options are spend $1000-1200 or whatever the price is for a great set of winter tires or spend that money on a winter beater. I could probably get a late 90's early 2000 explorer for about that price with 180k miles.
My only gripe with winter is rust. I know they galvanize the steel used on the cars to prevent rusting, something they didn't do 10-15 years ago I've read.
