Default Winter Tires

My brother bought a Z about a month ago and was looking at getting a set of winter tires to go along with his summer tires that came on the car. He does not see much snow, just a dusting here and there that usually only last a day or 2. Anybody got recommendations as I know nothing about winter tires. Thanks.

Does he want all season tires or snow tires?

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

I think he is looking more all season. They do not get that much snow but wants a tire for the winter time. The summer tires would be no bueno.

He read on some forum about these.

I like that one too, almost forgot I had it in my photobucket.

Leedom, he should just stick with all season tires then. Stay away from the Kumho a/s tires, worst tires I've ever bought.
