I have a set of 40,000 mile tires (all season) on my Honda Civic. I've never owned a Honda till a year and a half ago.
I bought the car used and these 40,000 mile tires were on it. Not so great during the winter. The tires have a little over 20,000 on them. But last winter I didn't like how they handled snow covered roads. So lately I've been contemplating getting snow. I've also been thinking maybe really alls I need is a more expensive tire that would handle much better in the winter time.
I am not afraid to drive in the snow and have never thought about snow tires until now and maybe that's because I've always had much better (all season) tires on my previous cars.
For those of you who are in climates that have "real winter weather". Like the northeast states in the U.S. and you drive a Honda Civic what brand of "all season" tires are on your car and how's it handle in the winter time.
Thanks for answering.
Hey Mike Z thanks for not answering the question about what brand tires you had on your Honda.
I'm not stupid and don't drive that way, but thanks for acting like my Mom and reminding me just in case I forgot.
I know, some of you "guys" can't help but think that us females out here haven't got clue one about how to drive in the winter time. I've been driving for more than 36 years now. I've never had an accident, I've never lost control of any vehicle I've driven. I know how to drive in the snow and how not to drive in the snow thanks you very much. I have never owned a friggin "compact car" in my life except for this one and last year the tires didn't seem to cut it during the time there was any snow on the roads.
That is why I asked the question I did. I thought maybe somebody out there might have some good perfoming all seasons on there Honda (or like you want to correct me) a "compact style car" that seems to handle the snowy roads well too.
That's all I wanted to know.
