where the rubber meets the road
What brand / model of all-season tires would you guys recommend for my bonne?
The Goodyears on there now really seem to suck. btw, I drive in a decent amount of snow here in Michigan, maybe I could get some Canadian imput on this. . .

I have no complaints (so far) with the Bridgestone Turanza'* that I bought for my Aurora (which I know can be had on Bonny'* as well). They are rated for superior dry and wet traction, excellent light snow traction, comfortable ride, and long treadwear. Only downside is that they ain't cheap.

I'm not impressed with the Goodyears I have right now. . . I think they are called Regatta? They really didn't last very long and I was squealing tires around a turn, an on/off ramp that the other Bonnies at the Lakeville meet had no problem with. Swerving to avoid roadkill my back end started fish tailing. . . and grip was horrid at 100 (taking into account I think Bonnies don't handle great at 80+). Personally, I'm going back to Bridgestone when I need new tires. So far they have worked the best for me.

I live north of you a bit and have never felt the need for snows. They might be nice, but I think you are just as well off around here with a good pair of all seasons. (Just my two cents)
