Blue, no Xpert, but here's my opin after noodling around on
T Rack site:
-why would you get, or let them sell you, a 50 series snow
tire for you D's Cougar? Even
if her car currently has 50
series tires, (which I sorta doubt), I would not get that
low of an aspect ratio tire for "snows".
-the Blizzak Revo comes in 55, 60 and 65 series...I'd get
a pair of the 60 or 65 series, not the freakin 50s.
-The LM-25 is really more tire than that car requires or
any college kid driving around MA in the snow, needs, imo.
Plus, it's a foo-foo higher performance tire and doesn't seem
to come in anything higher aspect ratio than a 55. Plus, they
cost considerably more than the Revos.
-Tire Rack and Bridgestone will push hard to sell you a set of 4, I'm sure:
I'd take a Pasadena on that too, as your D's Cougar is rear drive, if
I remember and I don't see any huge need for snows at all four
wheels of that rear drive car. She's gonna be in MA, not Maine or
Minn. Make sure her front tires are in exc shape and see what size
those front tires are: match them as close as possible.
