All-Season or NJ Winter Tire Recommedations... (Keep it Cheap!)
Getting time to Take off the Radons...
I have a set of spankin new 01 sports package 10-spokers... Any suggestion as to what all-season or winter tire I should mount for NJ winter use...
With the Quattro, I'm pretty sure I'll be fine with all-season tires only.
Thoughts/opinions?

Not like the "old" Blizzaks...
The LM-22s are H rated, so they should wear well. I had Pirelli W210As (also H rated) the last 2 years and they hardly wore at all. We don't see much snow in Denver, but when I go to the mtns every weekend, the H rated snows do just fine.
If you go all-season, it seems that the SP5000s are one of the top choices of AW readers.

I'm a Jersey boy too, and IMHO, I'd prefer to only have 'em for 2-3 seasons and have the grip...(m)
Also, most of the winter only tires wear more quickly than all-season...the compound is one of the reasons why the tires are better in the snow. In my mind, the extra grip when I really need it offsets the slight extra cost...
Plus, you have summer tires, so it's not like you need to use these year-round. I'm going to get mine in mid-November, and keep them on until early March (hey, it's supposed to be 70 degrees this weekend, it can't snow THAT soon, right? Somebody? Could I have a little backup on this?).
