Decision on two tires?
I want to buy new tires but i have it down to two choices,
1. Dunlop Sport A2 (high performance all season)
2. Yokohama YK420 (high performance all season)
Now i bought bridgestone blizzaks last season and we barely got any snow , so they are pretty much bald, and they only have a speed rating of up to 100mph, i want a all season tire thats good in the snow , but can also perform, and maintain a reasonable budget!
looking for 215/55/r16

Nothing will perform in the snow like a snow tire .... and all season tires are even worse in the snow because they were designed with all types of weather in mind.
But if i was to make a choice between the two tires i would get the yokos

I have the A2's on my Volvo. They are ok tires and should last awhile. I would rate them as avg performance tires for summer and rain. Havent tried them on snow yet and wont since I also got snow tires. I would say they are decent tires if you are strapped for cash and just want cheap resplacements for your stock. They are definitely better than stock but not as good as say Dunlop SP5000s. Decent quiet tire for daily use.

Get the Dunlop SPA2's. Latest Consumer Report magazine rated them best buy per the article I read.
