i just picked up a set of Pirelli P3000's. theyve got the best grip in dry + wet weather that ive ever used. theyre also amazing in light snow and slush weather. havent had major snowfall yet, but by the reviews ive read on them, theyre great at that as well. check out 1010tires.com and read some of ...

i had this exact same problem when cold weather hit here in toronto a few weeks ago. brought it to canadian tire and they just adjusted the belts. no more squeeking.

(btw, thanx to both you guys for the information. at least now i know partially whats going on.) =)

thanks for the info.

hi everyone.
this might be stupid, but i have a 1.6L DOHC auto, and days like these when the weather is cold (anything under 10 degress celcius) if i dont let my car warm up for at least 3 minutes and i put it into reverse or drive, itll stall once i touch the gas pedal. its happened last fall ...

hi everyone.
i just wanted opinions from other torontonian mx-3 drivers on these two tires. my main concern is snow driving. has anyone used any of these two and what are your opinions on them?

(plz no replies about 'get a winter tire', because im not going to. so drop it)

any other opinions?

hi everyone.
the subject pretty much says it all. which all-season tires have you used in winter weather (snow) and have been happy with? i dont want to get winter specific tires. please reply and let me know your experiences...
