Winter Tires?

Ok everyone,

So i know it's a little early for most people to be thinking winter, but i live in Michigan so i always need to be ready 2 months in advance. Plus, there's a website that i'm considering buying tires from that has a good deal on them right now so i guess i'll just be really prepared this year.

Anyway, the tires i'm trying to choose between are the Nokian WR-G2:

And the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R tires:
http://www.tiresbyweb.com/p-8972-nok...a-r-tires.aspx

They both seem like really good tires but i'm at a loss as to which one i should get. If anyone has had any experience driving these tires on a Mazda 6 please let me know, your help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, if any of you are thinking about getting any snow tires, TiresByWeb has a pretty good promotion going on right now. If you enter CARCLUB at checkout you can get $10 off of 1 tire or $40 off a set of 4. Plus all their products come with free shipping.

OP, Why are you asking about winter tires for a Mazda 6?? I am assuming you are posting links to your site as this is your first post on NAM.

Nokian R's, I live in the mountains of COLO. there is nothing better, I have had Blizzaks and others. They are the best for ice and snow. Have around 30,000 plus miles on mine. I can drive in all conditions without any problems.
