Can anyone tell me where I can find winter tires for the stock tire size 215 / 70 / r16. Us canadians get alot of snow. Looking in the price range of 90$ - 110$ a pop. Canadian retailers obviously perfered. If anyone else has bought winter tires what size have you installed / price / are you happy with them?

I bought studded snow tires for my E. They seem to work very well but I did not drive it in snow until after I put on the studded tires. I bought the same size tire that was on it when I bought it.

I got Courser MS's in 215/70/16 for US$67 each. Lots of sipes and deep lugs, they work well and were cheap to boot.

I went with 225/70QR-16 Bridgestone Winter Dueler DM-Z2's on Silver 16x6.5 Sport Edition Fox-2 Wheels

I got them from Tire Rack, $99 per wheel and $99 per tire. Mounted and balanced for free, about $15 per tire shipping.

They are working great!
