Except you sometimes tend to do things that are "totally" not necessary for the average person. You can make almost anything a bit or a whole lot better, but since I don't drag-race my Impreza or see if I can go through almost any amount of snow/slush/ice and or try to go anywhere.......it just doesn't make sense to me. I drive allot of miles, so I need a tire that will get the job done safely in all conditions. I do totally see the merit of going with specific tires for different times of the year, but I am a no non-sense kind of guy "with a budget". When is that new mackdaddy Jeep gonna be here?
