SRT-8 Snow Tire Choices
I'm planning to order the Borbet 18" wheels and 235/60-18 snows. Tire Rack lists 4 tire choices...
Blizzak LM-25, HR speed rated & XL load rated @$185 This is their preferred tire;
Dunlop Grandtek WT M2, HR/XL rated at $207;
Blizzak DM-Z3, Only QR rated at $134; and
Pirelli Scorpion, HR/XL rated at $156.
The DM-Z3 looks to have the most aggressive tread pattern, and I bet it is the best of the bunch in foul weather. However the QR speed rating and non-XL load rating are a concern, even though I don't drive aggressively with the snows on. Am I being unreasonable here?
Anyone who has used any of these tires on an SRT-8, (actually anyone with an opinion) what do you think of the choices? I've had other model Blizzaks and Nokians in the past, but the SRT-8 is new to me (and for that matter, so is rear wheel drive in winter, so wish me luck!)
Thanks!
