Snow tires
Ok i'm going to put snow tires on my car(99 280) for the first time(which is sad cause i lived in Mass my whole life and only had Mercedes) and i wanted to know what snow tires would you people recommend. and if you had any experience with those tires, i was planing on getting Blizzaks from Bridgestone.

I have been using Goodyear UltraGrip Ice & Snow (P195/65R15) for the past 7 years. I live in rural PA and on a rather steep winding incline that the township does not maintain very well, at least not at the hours that I have to drive)
I get about 2 to 3 seasons our of a set, but I also drive approx 20,000 miles per year (about 5,000 miles per season on the winter tires).
I also change them out when the 1st set of wear bars shows (I think 5/32") as opposed to the legal inspection limit wear bars (2/32").
