You will never regret buying all 4. Trust me. I've done it for years now and I still can't get over the difference!

My nephew manages a Bridgestone up in the Seattle area. I'll have to have him fix up my Acura! Last year I did $800 worth of front end damage to my minivan skidding on ice - there went a couple days worth of tuning!! This year I'm definitely going with winter tires!

We got rid of my wife's 4x4 last year, but got a set of Bridgestone Blizzaks for her New Beetle. This was after reading about the tests comparing the traction between 4 wheel drive with all weather tires and dedicated winter tires. Winter tires win in all areas except hill climbing. While my Scion Xb was sledding around the snowy streets, I could barely get a slide out of her car! (If I didn't enjoy sliding around, I would probably get a set for myself!)
