I just took my FWD Matrix out for the 1st time in the snow and all I can say is wow....I've never been in a worse handling FWD car!
I suspect a big part of that is the crappy OEM Continental CH95 tire that are on there. I just rotated the tires for the first time(15K) so the more aggressive tread is on the front and still seemed to slip slide my way down the streets.
Have been wanting to get new feet for the car ever since about 10k as these Contis are wearing like nobodys business and the ride is not all that great. Pretty noisy to boot. I've pretty much decided on either the Comforttred or the HydroEdge at Sam's club. THe GY is about 96 apiece with the Hydro coming in at 112(about the same cost as the Tripletred which may come into play)
I like the TRZ but I can't get them at Sam's plus the mpg question has me a little leery although same has been said about the GY's.
For good traction and great smooth ride any comments on which of these tires will deliver?
