The Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 is still the best tire in the winter / snow category the provides the maximum ice and and snow traction. It might not have the clear road driving manners of some other snow tires, but will help protect you on the ice-covered roads when you need it. 
Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 tires make a difference. Read on.
I have a Mitsubishi 3000GT that I drove for one winter and let sit for the next six winters because I couldn't keep the car on the road in snow and ice. I thought the car handled so badly in winter conditions because it was a sports car. But i was wrong; it's the shoes (tires), not the car.
I put a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 on my car after coming to work for Tire Rack a couple of years ago and learned about winter / snow tires. This car now plows through the snow better then my 4WD SUV. Some sizes of the Blizzak WS60 are being discontinued and replaced by the new Bridgestone Blizzak WS70.
Here are more Bridgestone Blizzak Winter / Snow tires to help you get through the winter safely.
Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V1 stands out from all the other winter tires for me. I get through the snow and ice better with four Blzzak DM-V1 on my SUV in 2WD than I do in 4WD mode with a set of good all-season tires. Some sizes of the Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 (shown at left) are being discontinued. This is a good time to check the condition of your winter / snow tires for the winter season that's right around the corner...especially if you are using the Blizzak WS60. We still have inventory on the Blizzak WS60 and will be getting more in stock until the tires are not available anymore from the manufacturer.Check your Blizzak WS60 snow tires now because if you do not need a set of four, this will be a good time to get them to ensure you will have a matched set before the tires are no longer available. The Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 is being replaced by the Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 (shown at right).
It is a lot easier and safer to use a floor jack than to use the spare tire jack that came with your vehicle. The Aluminum Service Jack from Tire Rack goes from 3.5" ground height to a maximum height of 19.5" in 12 strokes or less, even under load.
For additional safety, I would recommend always using jack stands. Tire Rack's Tire Rack's Aluminum Jack Stand Set ffeatures safety lock pins and a wide base to provide added stability.

Strut Extension - Most late-model 1/2-ton trucks and SUVs utilize a coilover strut for the front suspension; the shock and coil spring are together in one compact unit. A simple strut extension is utilized on these applications. This involves adding an application-specific spacer to the top of the factory strut assembly. This method does not preload the factory coil spring (which would degrade ride quality) or over-extend the factory shock. No modifications to factory-installed parts are required and no time-consuming dis-assembly of the factory strut is needed. The strut extension is easily removable should the vehicle need to be returned to stock, and some applications include modified extension stops if needed. Level-It strut extensions are the most cost-effective and efficient way to level the stance of your late-model truck.    |

Torsion Keys - Vehicles equipped with torsion bars have a certain amount of adjustment built into the factory system. This suspension height adjustment takes place via a bolt that indexes on a torsion key attached to each torsion bar. Simply “cranking up” the factory system is not the right way to go about gaining minor amounts of lift due to a number of factors. Level-It torsion keys are direct replacements for the factory pieces but feature different torsion bar indexing. The forged-steel keys are 25% stronger than the cast factory pieces, and when necessary new metric hardware is supplied to prevent “over-cranking” the bars. Shock extension and mounting tool adapters are also included with some applications.    |

| Coil Spring Spacers / Block Kits - Applications that utilize a coil spring front suspension utilize a coil-spring spacer to achieve lift. In most 4WD applications, this spacer is constructed from laser-cut steel and mounts on top of the factory coil. Most 2WD vehicles utilize a steel-encased urethane spacer that will not deteriorate or decrease ride height over time. Both designs ensure silent operation as the suspension cycles. When necessary, shock extensions are also included. With some of the taller lift heights (3" to 3-1/2"), the amount of lift exceeds the factory rake. This results in a slightly rear-low stance that is popular in some areas. However, for those that want to maintain a level stance, or the traditional rear-high stance, a variety of different block kits are available to suit every taste or preference. All block kits are sold separately.    |

This sprayer is great. You can conveniently put the car wash into the soap reservoir and not have to use a bucket for the car wash 
and water. The sprayer will mix the car wash and water to give you a nice soapy film on the car. 
Drying the car is the worst for me because it seems like it takes forever to dry a vehicle. I start by using the Griot's Ultimate Paint Squeegee, this really helps to cut down the time it take to dry the car. The Ultimate Paint Squeegee removes the majority of water from the vehicle for quicker drying. The squeegee will leave little to no water but you will need to finish the drying with the Microfiber Drying Towel.
This is a quick and easy way to finish the job. Griot’s Garage’s waffle-woven Microfiber Drying Towel lessens the friction on your paint so it's kind and gentle while retaining all the benefits of water absorption.

Need better brakes for your oversize All Terrain Tires or Mud Tires that you can't slow down fast enough? Give Hawk Performance brake pads a try. I have a Toyota 4Runner with 33X12.50X17 All Terrain Tires on it. Stopping the vehicle on 33" tires with the stock brakes was a challenge at times. Hawk Performance HPS pads offer 20-40% more stopping power over the Original Equipment pads.
I installed the Hawk HPS street brake pads on my 4Runner and what a big difference it made. With the Hawk HPS pads the braking feels like I have the Original Equipment size tires back on the SUV.

General Exclaim UHP is the tire you want if you are looking for an Ultra High 
Performance Summer tire at a great price.
I am using this tire now on my Nissan 350Z and I have been very happy with the performance. The two benefits that caught my attention are its wet traction performance and price. The General Exclaim UHP is designed to provide high levels of traction, response and control in dry conditions, along with superior hydroplaning resistance in wet conditions.
This tire won't take the place of a
Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 (shown at left) or a Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 (shown at right). If you just need a great daily driver that will help you terrorize the off ramps, the General Exclaim UHP will be a great choice.
