Then what would you recommend? I didn't want to "hijack" the thread, so I was thinking about posting in the North California subforum. The thing is, I just moved to the Bay Area and it seems it is never going to snow around here, and the "winters" are not actually any cold. However, I would like to know what's best when I plan to go to the mountains to ski or whatever (the BRZ is my only car for the moment).
To be honest, all this winter/summer/all seasons thing is pretty new to me. I come from Spain and there, at least in my region, we used "normal" tires and just put on chains when we went to areas with snow. But it seems it is not recommended to put chains in our cars... So I'm kind of lost.
I can get a set of winter tires if needed, but it seems a bit overkill to me for just a few weekends.
