I called my tire guys (whom I've used for years and trust) and gave them my short list and asked what they thought.
At the top of my list was the Hankook H727s. He said they are a good tire but they are hard and maybe not as good in the snow as a softer tire. Also on my list was the Michelin hydroedge. He said that was discontinued but it was replaced by the Defender which he thinks is a great high end tire (which sounds like what I wanted based on my description of my driving).
He put me on hold to help a customer and I had a chance to check the tire rack reviews and although new, this tire is getting great reviews.
Anybody else have them?
Par for the course with Michelin....they are pricey! But I'm excited - I hope it snows a TON in New England this year!
