First off, I'm a girl. )

what does this mean (see next paragraph, below) ? I need new tires and I must buy from Goodyear. They do have a true snow tire. I live in the Kansas City area ... If I show this to the guy at Goodyear, will he quote me a price? lol. sorry. I have no idea what "rims" are and I just recently learned there's a difference between "wheels" and "tires"
oh and my Chev Aveo is 2011 with 26000 miles, original Hankooks need to be replaced now...

SNOW TIRES - Time to put on the winter boots. If you have never invested in snow tires believe me, they make a world of difference especially on our little cars. If you haven't already purchased a nicer or larger set of rims, this is the perfect reason to do so. I mounted the winter boots on the stock rims and put a nice set of performance tires on the nicer rims for the rest of the year. By doing this you will be protecting your nicer rims from all of the salt, sand, brine, etc. It also makes it cheaper and easier to change from the winter tires to the spring/summer/fall tires.
