    17" snow tires wanted. 245 45R17 or equivilent. Set of four??

    17" snow tires wanted. 245 45R17 or equivilent. Set of four?? Need something with good tread.

    Some dickhead with no insurance ran a red light and totaled out my AWD Impreza work car. Now I get to drive the Sienna all winter. 215 55R17 work good too but need a MEATY set of four!

    I have 2 brand new 235/55/17 Goodyear UltraGrips. Should be the same height as the tires you want. But narrower, which is better in snow.

    I put these on my wife's Tiburon 2 years ago. It will go anywhere in the snow and they have worn very well. Good price on Discount Tire too.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
