Snow Tires for AWD Sport


marinduck

Recommended Posts

I just purchased a 2013 AWD Sport. Anyone running snow tires on their Sport with 22 inch rims? I make frequent trips to Tahoe in the winter and I am looking for a decent tire so I don't have to chain up. Based on my initial search, I only see one option for the 22" rim. Pirelli makes a Scorpion Zero Winter tire, but they are almost $400 a pop. Any other suggestions?

 

Maybe go with a complete second set of dedicated snow tires with a smaller rim size?? Any issues with doing this?

with snow tires you will want a smaller diameter wheel with a thinner profile. .

 

i would look for an inexpensive winter wheel and tire package, something like what you would see on a police vehicle.

 

i think the 22's on the Sport are overkill as it is, i can't imagine having snow tires on those wagon wheels.

 

should be no issue at all, aside from maybe speedometer calibration.
