Default Blizzak snow tires for sale: 16"

Will fit 16" camaro/firebird. These are GREAT winter tires, and they make our cars drivable in the winter. If you think these cars won't handle a winter, you haven't tried these tires.

I am selling them only because I am moving to Arizona. I used them ONLY in the winter and only for two winters. I put them on in december and took them off in the first week of april. They don't have much wear at all.

Starting price $150 for the pair plus shipping, but make me an offer.

first winter i put them on all four corners of the car, handled extreamly well and 10" of snow no problem. Then the following year i got lazy and only put them on the rear of the car. Handled about the same and 10" of snow was no problem to get through. I bought the four cause all the information i found said all the tires should match for best performance in the snow. I didnt find that to be true so i only use them on the rear now. Of course i dont do anything more the 40 in the snow anyway and i dont try and take corners fast either, dont care what tires you have if you happen to hit a covered patch of ice your going to slide and wipe out...

Like BubbaGump says, it's fine to just run them in the rear. That's what I did, as you can see. If you're really paranoid about it, you can throw a couple of 75lb sand bags in the trunk. I did that the first winter, but I didn't bother the second one. It was fine without the sand (even in that Chicago winter) and probably a little easier on the MPG. I'd say that one is a personal preference thing.

You'll be amazed how much better these tires are, but please do be careful. If it's a blizzard out, you still have to slow down!
