Did you try searching? This topic has been covered.

There's even a thread dedicated TO winter tires and it's stickied. - Winter Tire and Tire Pressure Thread!

That said please do a search before starting a new thread.

I have Michelin X-Ice 215 60 16.

If you have an SE with discs all around the 15's won't fit over the calipers in the rear. I tried it didn't work.

Punks_Not_Dead5:
your winter tire link does not show tire reviews.
I'll try searching again for winter tires Camry owners have used

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

type in "Winter Tires" in the search bar and you'll get a lot of threads on the topic

X Ice are the best, have been on top for the last few years.

I had the Michelin Alpin on my 03.
Switched to Canadian Tire Goodyear Nordic for my 07.
Think the Nordic's are as good on ice and better in deep snow, cheaper too.

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

I had nordic on my last car, and they sucked on ice and snow lol. Matter of opinion i guess

I use the Michelin X-Ice tires as well. This will be my 3rd winter and after, I'm tossing them out. Winter tires wear out quicker.

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

instead of tossing them can i have them???

i'm on my 3rd winter as well and they have a ton of tread left.

LOL as long you can come to my house near downtown T.Dot to pick them up, sure you can have them. I don't like driving on bald tires. How did you get yours to last so long?

Maybe it's the annual mileage? I put on about 30000-35000KM per year in driving.

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

What size are they first? lol

I put the winters on mid dec (though this year early...today...cause i have a road trip planned). And the are usually off mid april.

I don't do much driving during the week, most weekends in the winter up north.

I will close this thread, you guys going off topic................lol just kid.
OP if you go to www.1010tires.com and search winter tires by vehicle, you can find all kind of tires with ratings.

[qprint]

I ask for for help to decide and people are selling tires on this thread.
W300 or WS60 ?

WS60 higher priced

I put mine on and off same time as you. They're 215/55/R17 (stock wheel size). I guess I wear out tires quicker because I drive my car as much as a cabby does.

Going to mount the winters on next week hopefully. Going on a trip to Montreal and Ottawa to see relatives this weekend so I'm still keeping the all-seasons on for now (don't want to wear out the winters on dry roads).

LOV, nobody's selling anything here. I'm going to be giving away my tires free...and we're talking next April at that. 1010tires is a decent site - I've ordered from them before. Tirerack is the best though.

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

Well we'll talk more in April. I'm debating going to 17's for the winter, as i have a project coming up that won't let me fit 16's anymore after the spring

i would recommend the bridgestone blizzak WS60. i've had them for two winters now... and the second winter, i drove up to vermont in that big snow storm. i couldn't ask for a better tire: i was going up hills that other people were sliding back down from!
