Hi all! Just getting around to taking off my winters and I need new summer tires (the Pirelli's are dead..) Any recommendations out there? We are on a very restricted budget so not too happy about tire replace time, but hey.. I was thinking of these maybe:

I'm in Toronto.

Thanks!

Thanks guys.

The only General tire I saw online that fit at Canadian Tire were these:

They seem to be getting very mixed reviews. I'll have a look at tire rack.

Thanks again..

Check out the General Tires, they are made by Continental and Tirerack rates the Exclaim highly. I have them on my 850 Turbo and I am very happy with them even though CTC service makes me crazy.

Hi,
My wife has an 03 XC & I`ll be putting "summers" on as soon as winter quits here(Alberta). Last Fall I put the General Tire Altimax Arctics on her XC & based on my experience with this brand I`m going to put General Tire summers on the XC. The winter tires have been excellent, better than the Nokians we had on her previous 850 wagon & way more affordable too. Check out General Tire at your CDN Tire store.
Good luck!
Rich in Alberta
