Driving - on highway
Concern - decent ride, wet & snow traction
Current - stock size (215/75 R15???)
Three bridgestone duellers (sp?) with very decent tread
One Goodyear Wrangler (looks like original spare - full size) appears new - still has "blue" on the letters but has probably been in the vehicle since 1997.
Questions -
Is there any problem with running different tread patterns e.g. should I try to find an experienced Dueller to match the other three?
Get three Wranglers to match the new tire?
Never trust a seven year old tire?
Replace all four with ????? If replacing all four should I consider larger rims (street car).
The wife does not like the amount of room taken up by the full size spare and I'm not really interested in an external mount. Opinions/problems with using the skinny, stock spare for emergencies?
Thanks in advance.
ps - I did a search on tires and was suprised that I didn't find tire recommendations, hence the post.
ppss - Is asking about better than oem tires a topic that should go into street performance?
