Best Tires for the Outlander
#11
Looks good Outlaander. Thank for the info as I did look for all weathers.
Consumer reports even gives them a good rating. Maybe next time. However, I can't tell you how satisfied I am with these Michelin Premier. I don't swap for snows on my Outlander (I do on my Mustang). Being retired, if the weather is that bad I just don't go out. I have been caught though and am extremely satisfied with the Premiers in the worst of conditions. Cheers

BTW, Quebec already has a mandatory snow tire law:

So the other possible thing is that one of these years snow tires are going to be made madatory by more of those same intelligent people, or at provincial or federal levels. I'm surprised it hasn't already happened in Ontario. WHEN, IMO not "if", that happens nationwide, the "snowflake" symbol on tires is also going to become mandatory. Again, the WRG tires have that symbol, so IMO that makes them even more desirable as a fully-legal, year-round tire today, tomorrow or in the coming years. BTW, I'm not in any way, shape or form a tire salesman or tire promoter.

In Quebec only the tire showing this pictogram are considered Winter tire.
The snowflake is inside a mountain.
Official pictogram for winter tires
Since December 15, 2014, only tires on which this pictogram is found and studded tires are considered winter tires under the Highway Safety Code.

1. If you live in a state that requires some periodic official vehicle inspections, whoever does that inspection will tell you that he won't put the sticker on your vehicle unless you first replace the tires.
2. If you don't live in a state that requires a periodic inspection, that decision will be based upon how brave you are. There is nothing quite like driving a car that has bald tires through a snow storm on a busy highway. To give yourself the illusion of security, I suggest constant prayer and a rabbit's foot hanging from the mirror (if you have a motorcycle or football helmet, you might want to slip one of those on before heading out).
3. Seriously, to be safe, replace the tires when the tread wears down to the tops of the treadware indicators on the tires. You won't know that that has happened unless you carefully examine the tires periodically-- when the tires are new, not so often; more often as the miles add up. I check the tread condition each time I swap summers for winters.
