Having just bought a new car from a different brand... (My VW wheels won't work on Toyota)
money is tight... Mammoth Ski Race Camp is $1000 for week-long lessons vs. Spending around that much (maybe a little more)...for a set of All-weathers...
As much as I'm a 2-wheelset person... I don't think I want to load up my credit card for a set of 18" wheels plus TPMS plus tires this year AND a set of chains (or cables)....
So, for 235/55r20 tires, as much as I would buy another set of Nokian WR G4 SUV, I can save some money with a set of General Altimax 365 AW.... while then over the next 2 years... buy a set of 18" wheels, TPMS and tires...
Which brings me to problem #2... Snow chains... Konig chains are not cheap. The suspension clearance only allows for the Easy Fit SUV or K-summit XL, which are $500+ options... a set of SCC Super Z6 cables are about $100 (on Amazon), but I don't want to risk scratching the 20" wheels with them....
Option 2:
Get the chains or cables and hope for the best with the factory Bridgestone Alenza Sport A/S, and hope I don't slide the car with them and do the Mammoth Ski Race Camp.
