Need new tires for my Explorer

[dudingbos]

I have received a 2005 Ford Explorer as a gift, and I'm very excited about it. Although it need some modifications since it was kept in a garage for almost a year now. First off I got the brakes and the lights done, and now I'm looking for some winter tires. I know it's only August, but winter is coming (hehe). Google led me to this article http://holmestire.com/best-winter-tires/, but I don't know if it's any good. I was thinking about using the Goodyear Ultra Grip tires but I don't know if they're that good. I'd love if you could look into it. Money is not an issue. I afford paying a decent amount of money, if it's worth it. Thanks!

I've been running Firestone Winterforce for 15 years on a 1989 full size Bronco. I bought my first set on a clearance sale, bought the second set due to liking the way they did their job. The dryer they snow, the better they get, and you can stud them for real bad ice conditions.

I'll look into those Firestone Winterforce tires. Can you tell me anything about Michelin and Goodyear? Thanks!

... winter is coming ...

But they don't drive cars in Westeros! I suggest you look at a good horse and cart.
