Winter tire cost advice
I'm looking to get winter tires for my wife's car. She does minimal driving, maybe 3,000-4,000 Kms a year. I know even the cheapest dedicated winter tire is better than an all season in bad conditions, but I was thinking of picking up some of the lower cost offerings from SimplyTire (Ironman or Laufenn, etc) but there aren't very many reviews online. I was just wondering if anyone knew of a site or forums where I can research these tires, or had first hand reviews of them.
My conundrum is that buying better winter tires doesn't seem practical for the amount of driving my wife will do, I don't mind spending money when I have to, but I don't want to throw it away if it's unnecessary.
What are your thoughts?
