Re: Whistler Pro-78 Radar Detector on a Road Trip ^ Wow! That's a lot that's going on!
First, best of luck on the job-hunt!
Second - "used" winters.....can you cross-shop (tire sizing) for ones in the Subaru community? We've got a lot of people who really like winters, and typically see between 205/55/17, 215/50/17, 225/45/17, to 225/40/18 sizing.
But aside from treadwear/cost-effectiveness, I guess the other reason why I'd shy away from this would be "years"/cost-effectiveness. For a guy like me, for example, I may still have plenty of tread on the tires, as I don't drive that much, but the tires will have gone through three, or even four seasons' worth of use....and the compound may be "shot" by then....
