Whoops I bought them, haha. Posted by B Millar [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Snow Tires - Toyo Observes?, BrianG, Tue, 30 Dec 2008 15:57:33 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I was set to be hosting a New Years party with my high school friends at the house I rent in Storrs near UConn so I had to drive there yesterday after the annoying 4-7" of snow came down. Bah. So I bought them for $478.xx out the door. I have never driven another car in the snow with snow tires but my 9-5 turned into a SNOW MOBILE with those things. It's freaking awesome. The Toyo Observes seem to perform very well in the snow. I am a little disappointed in the dry pavement handling, as another poster mentioned and a lot of the reviews online. The treads are deep so I think the rubber squishes around and makes them a little wobbly. I definitely noticed myself making course adjustment a lot going down the highway. I couldn't just hold the wheel in one position to go straight, if that makes sense. Oh well, you can't have everything. Just thought I'd share...
