Not only is there a slew of brands and models out there, but tires are further divided along performance and weather lines. So which will work best for you?

In this installment of our ongoing tire tests, we investigated the performance differences among three types of tires — snow tires, high-performance tires that promise the best traction in warm-weather conditions, and all-season tires. Scottish Fold Cats For Sale In IndianaFurthermore, we selected all three tires from Goodyear's Eagle family because every Eagle tire has a higher-than-average performance quotient. Wheaten Terrier Cross Puppies For SaleThe recently introduced Eagle Ultra Grip GW3, for example, is a snow tire specifically made for drivers of performance cars.Kohler Bathroom Faucets DiscontinuedAll snow and ice tires employ tall tread blocks, a more open tread pattern, narrower tread, and soft rubber compounds to enhance grip in the slippery stuff.

Unfortunately, those features tend to produce freeway hum and an unsatisfying, squirmy feel on dry roads. And even those of us in snowy climates spend most of our winter months driving on plowed pavement. This new Eagle Ultra Grip is designed to get you through the snow, while maintaining more dry-road performance than typical snow tires. The tire also comes in higher speed ratings (H and V) than most snow tires. They cost $160 each.Our all-season contender was the Eagle RS-A ($137), and the high-performance summer tire was the Eagle F1 GS-D3 ($155).Since we were testing only Goodyear tires, there was no unfair advantage to using Goodyear's facilities. We ran the snow tests at Goodyear's Ironwood, Michigan, winter-testing facility, and for wet and dry running we relied on the company's Akron, Ohio, test track. We also used Goodyear's Cadillac CTS for all the tests, and that dictated the tire size used — 225/55R-16 for all three tires.Testing in snow poses unique challenges in consistency, so we performed tests at Ironwood different from those we conducted in the dry at Akron.

Bear with us, and the differences will become clear.Ironwood is high up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, just 10 miles from the shore of frigid Lake Superior. It's a land of bitter cold, but on the sunny day we were there last March, the temperature ranged from a balmy 20-to-24 degrees Fahrenheit. The facility is basically a six-lane, 2200-foot straightaway.Testing on snow is no picnic because the available traction is based on many variables. Snow at 30 degrees is more slippery than 15-degree snow because there's more moisture in snow when it's warmer. If you drive over the same area repeatedly, you create ruts in the snow that also affect traction. Since measuring lateral acceleration by repeatedly driving the car in a circle (our usual skidpad procedure) or running a handling test would create deep ruts that would change the traction from one tire to the next, we didn't attempt to run a snowy skidpad.Therefore, on the snow we only measured the acceleration and braking performance of the tires.

Given our available space, we measured the 0-to-50-mph acceleration time and the distance required to stop from that speed with each tire.Not surprisingly, the snow tire was the best performer. With it we were able to accelerate to 50 mph in 14.2 seconds and stop in 245 feet. As we expected, the all-season RS-A lagged behind, being 3.4 seconds slower in acceleration and needing an extra 20 feet to stop. Those differences might not seem large enough to justify snow tires. And for sure, if your car has all-season tires on it and you live where it doesn't snow often, you can probably get away with them. But as you'll see, any car with high-performance summer tires is going to need another set of tires for the winter months.The high-performance Eagle F1 got an F on the snow. We only managed to reach 11 mph, and that was with two burly guys pushing. Otherwise, it was wheelspin city. Let us be clear here: Don't attempt to drive on snow with high-performance summer tires. Even if your car has four-wheel drive and can manage to get moving, four-wheel drive can't help the car turn or stop.
