Anyone else have these tires. I'm getting them as a fall/winter/spring tire.
BJs Wholesale Club is having a tire sale next week.

here are a couple reviews from the tirerack.

1998 Honda Prelude

Miles driven on tires: 2,000

BFGoodrich Traction T/A IS the tire for your 1997-2002 Honda Preludes. It has deep groove patterns, almost like snow tires and channels for water dispersion. I have driven it for one month in the snow in the North-East and did not get stuck or spin once. Great buy for those of you who dont want to buy snow tires. Throw out your stock/OEM Bridgestone Potenzas. They are overpriced and could get you into serious trouble in bad weather! -- Review Submitted 2004-01-26- Tirerack.com

This is an awesome tire and a huge improvement over the Kumho Ecsta 712s I previously had on this car. Here is what I can tell you at this point - Fuel economy instantly went up 2mpg, Noise level went down tremendously (I can actually hear the radio at 75 now) These tires grip like crazy in the ice an snow (very impressive) Rain same thing. If these tires even come close to their rated life I will be very impressed as I have never gotten more than 30K out of a V rated tire even with my obsession with air pressure/alignment/rotations. I have to say so far this is the best tire I have ever owned and I have driven Michelins, Kumhos, Bridgestones, Goodyears, Generals, Dunlops, & Toyos. If the Traction T/A is made in your size you need to look no further for your tire. -- Review Submitted 2004-01-29 - Tirerack.com

I use to work in The Tire Sams Club. The BFG Tires are really good tires. And i have heard nothing but great reviews about the Traction TA. And you live in the Northeast. So you are goign to want snow traction. As long as you don't get A LOT of snow these tires will do great for you... And they come with either a 60,000 or 70,000 treadwear warrantee! Let us know how they wear!
