One of my tires crapped out on the way to work today. My dilemma is that I am running an older version of Blizzaks that aren't made anymore. Should I try to track one down or will a newer Blizzak do the trick for the last couple months of winter? This is on a Yaris. Also, the two tires with the most tread on them are on the front..
Buy two new for the front and be done with it !
What Chebbie_SB said, except put the newer tires on the rear axle. Understeer is more manageable in winter than oversteer.

Fixed that for you.
what size and model blizzak? ive got 3 older ones that i dont need that i think are 205/55/15.... forget the model number right now, but they arent one of the nicer performancey looking patterns.
Craigslist can be your friend.
I have 13" Blizzaks on steelies. Lotsa tread on them. Will trade for Miata parts.

Lucky tire.

Did you at least get dinner first?
"so I blew a tire today..."
I'm sure that's just ice cream.
so a guy goes into a bar and says to the bartender, "gimme 6 shots of tequila!" the bartender asks what's the occasion, and the guy says, "First blowjob!" The bartender pours 7 and says "The last one's on the house." Guy says, "If the first six haven't gotten the taste out of my mouth, I don't think the seventh one is gonna do me any good."
The mechanic said I blew a seal. I told him to fix the damn thing and keep my private life out of it, okay pal?
I really shouldn't be encouraging this.

Oddly, my manager(in the seafood dept.) doesn't want me playing that song on our stereo out front.
Instead we have 80's collections
In reply to WilberM3:
They are 185/55/15 and the model is WS15..
I guess as long as you didn't blow a seal or a rod, you're doing OK.

that's the same model as mine. they arent the same size but if you can fit a 205 and want 2 of em for a pair let me know.
It never ceases to amaze me of fast a thread can get off track. This one might have set a record.

You mean this one?
In reply to Teh E36 M3:
I haven't heard that is probably 25 years. It still makes me laugh. Thanks!
If you blew a tire, a rim job is certainly next in order.
