snow tires or all season?
Kumho 795's are highly rated for snow/ice over at TireRack and go for $37.00 each.
I have em on my aveo, and they were very good in the recent storm here in the midwest.
I put a set of Gilsved Nord Frost 3's probably a bit of a pricier tire, but after my dad got them on his jetta i had to try them out for mine
I went with a 175/65/14, and i cant speak for other snows but these tires are just awesome!!! I have tried to get stuck in my driveway at the end where the snowplow nicely leaves a pile for me to tackle and it just eats it up!!!
